RE: [vhdl-200x] RFC (Request for Comments/Review): Expressions in Bit String Literals

Hi Brent,

I support the proposal, but I think the comments about compiler construction
are out of date.  1971 is before compiler construction tools were available.
Some tools have separate descriptions of scanner and parser e.g. flex and
bison, and some tools have a single description e.g. antlr.  Nevertheless,
it is still a good idea to make the language easy to parse, and so I agree
with the proposed parentheses.

Regards,

Peter Flake

Hi Guys,

This came up in one of Daniel Kho's Emails and is something I would also
find useful.

I have put a proposal together for comments:
