No way to enumerate JSONVariant array elements in a FOR loop

[GoogleCodeExporter]

If I have a variable of type JSONVariant, I would expect the following to 
compile:

for var i := 0 to myVar.Length - 1 do

Instead, I get "Syntax Error: Integer expected."  It appears that 
dwsJSONConnector defines the Length method as returning an integer in 
TdwsJSONConnectorType.HasMethod, but this is never actually called during 
compilation, so the expression's type comes out as Variant instead.

Length is for accessing an hypothetical field named "Length", however there is 
a pseudo-method Length() which will return the number of elements, the () allow 
to differentiate.
There are several other pseudo methods which work in the same way: Low(), 
High() & TypeName(). The other pseudo-methods are less problematic as they 
require at least one parameter.
