Brenda, try changing my2Dimension[2,2] to my2Dimension[2][2] and see if it works.  I saw a similar bug go by, and Tim said we're only going to allow one subscript per set of square brackets.

I don't know if there's already a defect on validation not rejecting that expression.

I changed it to my2Dimension[2][2] and got:

org.eclipse.edt.javart.AnyBoxedObject cannot be cast to egl.lang.EglList

Now I get:

Type mismatch: cannot convert from EglList<EglAny> to EglList<EglList<String>>
