Moreover, they may not be signals. 1042 Missing sentence for variable assignment aggregate target. 1043 User defined attribute on function name 1045 Qualified expressions lead to lexical ambiguity 1046 Unclear definition of "resolved signal." 1047 VPI Issue 10 -- Entity class type vs. subtype 1048 Deferred constant reference before complete definition. 1049 When is an entity bound to the library it references? 1050 Visibility outside of design units is not well-defined. 1051 Direct visibility rules for USE clauses are incomplete and confusing. 1052 Rules for others in aggregates are incomplete 1055 Reading predefined signal attributes of subprogram signal parameters within the subprograms. 1056 Certain error requirements are not well-defined. 1057 Expanded names are not allowed in extended regions. 1058 What use are LINKAGE ports? 1059 What is the allowed use of others in record aggregates? 1060 A'LEFT's result type is anomalously described. 1062 Can a resolution function return an unconstrained array? 1063 Scope and visibility rules for predefined attributes are unclear. 1064 Passiveness of processes is not analysis-time computable. 1066 Conversion function definition assumes different types. 1069 Mod and rem are ill-defined when they return zero. 1070 VPI Issue 14 -- Prefixes in USE clauses 1071 The bounds of array aggregates are ill-defined. 1072 Does the elaboration of a process statement create a process? 1074 Interpretation of overloaded name prefixes is unclear. 1075 Self-referential access types are not prohibited. 1076 Applicability of resolution functions is still unclear. 1077 Out ports cannot drive buffer ports. 1079 Conflicting rules for direction of concatenation 1081 Expression elaboration with impure functions 1082 Implicit conversion of a universal real expression 1085 "Staticness" of the predefined attribute INSTANCE_NAME 1086 Use of character literal or operator symbol in alias 1088 Problems with physical mapping of libraries 1089 Visibility problem with components and USE clauses 1090 Do library clauses extend from entities to architectures? 1091 Group constituent names cannot have signatures. 1092 Must a selected name in a use clause denote anything? 1093 Replacement characters (from Ada) complicate parsing. 1094 Bad wording for individual association for subprograms. 1095 Are time literals with real numeric parts exact? 1096 Entity aspect poorly defined for incremental binding. 1097 Why do primary unit names in secondary units differ? 1098 Can variable parameters be left unassociated or not? 1104 Inconsistent, overly restrictive subtype checks. 1105 The elaboration of group declarations is not defined. 1106 Accumulated problems with unclear wording. 1107 Postponed process behave illogically at initialization. 1108 The subtype of a deferred constant may not always be deduced during analysis time. 1109 The term "named entity" it not defined. 1110 The term "object" is not well-defined. 1111 Is a user-defined attribute an object? 1112 Need to disallow conversion function signal parameters. 1114 LRM wording doesn't account for separators. 1115 Should subtype and constraint checks really be made when the driver takes on the value of a signal? 1116 implicit signals in guard expression (via port maps) 1117 Problem with Composite Resolved Signal 1118 Group constituent can't be user-defined attribute name. 1119 LRM is not clear as to when the wait statement condition clause is evaluated in a postponed process. 1120 Inconsistency about the mode of formal parameters of class file. 1121 Meaning of a changed value for reals is not clear 1122 Default binding text and examples disagree 1123 Simulation cycle does not account for processes resuming after expiration of the timeout interval 1124 Are all actuals evaluated in incremental binding? -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.Received on Tue Jan 9 16:05:44 2007
