Thanks, Ed, that answers the question about why an action_block was used. I shouldn't have forgot about 1460 so quickly! So the paragraph following Syntax 16-1 does need to be updated somehow to take into account the possibility of immediates assumes with action_blocks. "The action_block specifies what actions are taken upon success or failure of the assertion. The statement associated with the success of the assert statement is the first statement. It is called the pass statement and is executed if the expression evaluates to true. The pass statement can, for example, record the number of successes for a coverage log, but can be omitted altogether. If the pass statement is omitted, then no userspecified action is taken when the assert expression is true. The statement associated with else is called a fail statement and is executed if the expression evaluates to false. The else statement can also be omitted. The action block is executed immediately after the evaluation of the assert expression." -- Brad -----Original Message----- From: Eduard Cerny Sent: Wednesday, August 15, 2007 5:37 AM To: Brad Pierce; Eduard Cerny Cc: sv-champions@eda.org; Korchemny, Dmitry; john.havlicek@freescale.com Subject: RE: [sv-champions] Meeting reminder - August 15th 9am PST Brad, I believe this is covered by #1460: http://www.eda-stds.org/svdb/view.php?id=1460 ed > -----Original Message----- > From: Brad Pierce [mailto:bpierce@synopsys.COM] > Sent: Tuesday, August 14, 2007 6:57 PM > To: Eduard Cerny > Cc: sv-champions@eda.org; Korchemny, Dmitry; > john.havlicek@freescale.com > Subject: RE: [sv-champions] Meeting reminder - August 15th 9am PST > > Ed, > > Regarding http://www.eda-stds.org/svdb/view.php?id=1729 , why does an > immediate assume statement need an action block, but a concurrent > assume statement does not? > > Also, the paragraph after Syntax 16-1 about action blocks has not been > updated to take into account action_blocks on immediate assumptions. > It is still written as if only immediate assertions could have action > blocks. > > -- Brad > > -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.Received on Wed Aug 15 07:18:48 2007
