Minutes of ISAC meeting held via telecom on 16 November 2006 Present: Peter Ashenden, Jim Lewis, Larry Soule, Chuck Swart, Lance Thompson, Ajay Verikat Absent: None Next Meeting: Thursday, December 7, 2006, 6 pm Pacific Time (Friday, December 8, 2006, 2 am GMT ) TOPIC: IR 2103 Dynamic/run-time creation and destruction of components and connectivity This IR is clearly an enhancement request. ACTION: Chuck to forward to VASG chair. TOPIC: IR 2104 Using a configuration to leave a design unbound Peter's analysis is accepted. The IR is ISAC-Approved. Action: Chuck to forward to VASG chair for VASG approval. TOPIC: IR 2099 Alias declarations introduce homographs We are exploring the solution of revising the LRM so that analias declaration with the same designator as the named entity is not a homograph of the named entity, and two alias declarations with the same designator that denote the same named entity are not homographs. Several LRM changes would be needed, including changes to 10.5 to relax the restriction that exactly one interpretation is visible, but to allow multiple equivalent interpretations. In analyzing the various cases it became clear that the name of a declaration is not the same as the type it designates. Peter again pointed out that the various examples need to be rewritten so that the aliases in question are in the same declarative region as the aliased objects. It appears that this interpretation covers the desired cases adequately. ACTION: Chuck to continue analysis. TOPIC: IR 2101 Type conversion - implicit refers to section 8.1.2 which doesn't exist The analysis is accepted. The IR is ISAC-Approved ACTION: Chuck to forward to VASG chair for VASG approval. TOPIC: IR 1012 It is unclear how Physical Literals of type TIME should be treated when checking for conformance. Larry has begun analysis. Time literals are globally static, but the expectation is that conformance checking, which is primarily lexical, must be done during analysis. A reasonable solution is to exclude literals of type time from the allowed variations in clause 2.7.
