verilog error ... (vlog-2110) Illegal reference to net array

Using Verilog, I want to make 4by4 multiplier, but there is one error:

vlog-2110) Illegal reference to net array "w11".

about other variables w12, o1..... there is also error...

I cannot understand the meaning of the error. If you can solve this error, please tell me.

module half_adder (x,y,s,c);
  input x,y;
  output s,c;

  assign s=x^y;
  assign c=x&y;   
endmodule

module full_adder (x,y,z,s,c);
  input x,y,z;
  output s,c;
  wire w1,w2,w3;

  half_adder h1(x,y,w1,w2);
  half_adder h2(w1,z,s,w3);
  assign c = w2|w3;
endmodule   

module  four_bit_adder (a, b, c0, s, c4);
  input [3:0]a;
  input [3:0]b;
  input c0;
  output [3:0]s;
  output c4;
  wire c1,c2,c3;

  full_adder fu1(a[0],b[0],c0,s[0],c1);
  full_adder fu2(a[1],b[1],c1,s[1],c2);
    
  full_adder fu3(a[2],b[2],c2,s[2],c3);
  full_adder fu4(a[3],b[3],c3,s[3],c4);
endmodule

maybe there is error next code

// 4by4_multiplier
module four_four_multi (A,B, zero, C);
  input [3:0]A;
  input [3:0]B;
  input zero;
  output [7:0]C;
  wire w11[3:0];
  wire w12[3:0];
  wire o1[3:0];
  wire w21[3:0];
  wire w22[3:0];
  wire o2[3:0];
  wire w31[3:0];
  wire w32[3:0];
  wire o3[3:0];
  wire o4;
  
  assign C[0] = A[0] & B[0];

  assign w11[0] = A[0] & B[1];
  assign w11[1] = A[0] & B[2];
  assign w11[2] = A[0] & B[3];
  assign w11[3] = 0;
  
  assign w12[0] = A[1] & B[0];
  assign w12[1] = A[1] & B[1];
  assign w12[2] = A[1] & B[2];
  assign w12[3] = A[1] & B[3];

  four_bit_adder four1(w11, w12, zero, o1 ,w21[3] );

  assign C[1] = o1[0];
  assign w21[0] = o1[1];
  assign w21[1] = o1[2];
  assign w21[2] = o1[3];
  
  assign w22[0] = A[2] & B[0];
  assign w22[1] = A[2] & B[1];
  assign w22[2] = A[2] & B[2];
  assign w22[3] = A[2] & B[3];

  four_bit_adder four2(w21, w22, zero, o2 ,w31[3] );

  assign C[2] = o2[0];
  assign w31[0] = o2[1];
  assign w31[1] = o2[2];
  assign w31[2] = o2[3];
  
  four_bit_adder four3(w31, w32, zero, o3 , o4 );

  assign C[3] = o3[0];
  assign C[4] = o3[1];
  assign C[5] = o3[2];
  assign C[6] = o3[3];
endmodule

The following declaration declares nets w11, w12, ... as arrays of nets.

  wire w11[3:0];
  wire w12[3:0];
  ...

The verilog standard allows you to declare them but does not allow using them as whole array in ports. To fix it in verilog you need to declare those nets as vectors:

  wire [3:0] w11;
  wire [3:0] w12;
  ...

System Verilog relaxed this rule and it should work in that language as is.
