RE: [sv-ac] #1532

Not directly, but the LRM says:
 
hierarchical_event_identifier ::= hierarchical_identifier

hierarchical_identifier ::= [ $root . ] { identifier constant_bit_select
. } identifier

 

and a sequence name is an identifier.

	A sequence is a kind of event?

	Hi,
	 
	This proposal does not break backward compatibility as
@hierarchical_event_identifier takes care of the case 
	a = @s c;
	 
	What this proposal is saying is that if there is a parameterized
sequence instance, it has to be inside '(..)' so that it does not create
any conflicts.
	 
	Thanks.
	Manisha

	The proposed BNF change unnecessarily breaks backward
compatibility.  One would no longer be able to write
	 
	     a = @s c;
	 
	for a sequence 's'.  Yet, by replacing 'sequence_instance' with
'ps_sequence_identifier' in 'event_control', as suggested in Mantis on
7-11-2006, you could preserve this part of backward compatibility and
still address the easier-to-Yacc desire of the erratum.
