Erik: Accept the proposed resolution.

Mantis 2496: non_port_program_item should contain assertion_item

Ed: The original BNF is correct. Deferred assertions are illegal in programs.

Tom: Leave the LRM unchanged. Send to P1800 the following feedback:



16.4.3 "Deferred assertions outside procedural code" states: "A deferred assertion statement may also appear outside procedural code, used as a module_common_item. In such cases, it is treated as if it were contained in an always_comb procedure." Since an always_comb procedure cannot appear in programs, using deferred assertions in programs should be illegal. Therefore SV-AC recommends to leave the LRM text unchanged.



Ed seconds.



Motion passed 6y/0a/0n.





- Opens.



Next meeting will take place Monday, 2009-04-27 16:00 UTC (09:00 PDT)
