I fully agree. From: owner-ieee1647@eda.org [mailto:owner-ieee1647@eda.org] On Behalf Of Yuri Tsoglin Sent: Sunday, February 16, 2014 6:27 PM To: ieee1647@eda.org Subject: messages and message loggers Hi, This is regarding Mantis issue 4377 - new message configuration infrastructure. I propose to completely remove the old - logger based - message configuration API from the standard (including the removal of "message logger" concept itself), and add the new - unit based - instead. I see several reasons to do so, rather than having both old and new API: - The new API provides the same functionality, and even more. - The new API is much simpler and easier to define. The old one has several complicated aspects, and I doubt if they are all precisely defined in the current version of the standard. - Having both APIs in the standard would make it even more complicated, without need. o Especially along with the addition of structured messages material (another Mantis issue - 4312). - Cadence might eventually stop supporting the old API - it is currently under deprecation process in Specman. How does this sound? Thanks, Yuri.
