Instead, make it a property, and use it as follows:

In your Init:

this.AddProperty('a_gen10[1,1]')
DIMENSION this.a_gen10(1,2)

You can use thisform or thisformset if they're more appropriate. The member array is scoped to the life of the object. You can also define a member property ahead of time visually using the same type of notation in the Add New Property dialog.
