Team,
Here is another round of comments from our VPI expert
on Novas' proposal.
Regards,
Doug
Page 4
End of section 29.3.2:
"A collection objects" --> "A collection object"
Page 5
End of section 29.3.2.1
"This methods are" --> "These methods are"
"to applying vpi_control()" --> "to applying vpi_control() or vpi_goto()"
Section 29.4 diagram:
Using the VPI object model diagram rules, the names in the ovals
should be:
nets
net array
regs
reg array
variables
memory
primitive
primitive array
Has "concurrent assertion" been defined as a VPI type yet?
Should "memory word" be added to the diagram or should "memory"
be removed since I think the task force wants to deprecate memories
in favor of arrays?
vpiTrvsObj does not need to be specified for the iterator arrow
because that's implied by the name "trvsObj" in the oval.
Page 6
Figure 29-3 - I still think the iteration arrow should go from
objCollection to traversable and another one from trvsCollection
to trvsObj.
Table 29-1
First entry - "Create iterator" --> "Create an iterator"
"Extend with" --> "Extended with"
Second entry - "Add a new types" --> "Add new types"
Page 8
Two paragraphs above 29.7.2:
"entry point for the give tool" --> "entry point for the tool"
Page 9
Table 29-3 - "for obtaining handle" --> "for obtaining a handle"
Also, make the table a little wider to avoid the bizarre
wrapping of vpi_handle_by_multi_index().
Page 11
Paragraph above 29.7.4.1
"an initial vpi_control() to" --> "an initial vpi_control() or
vpi_goto() to set"
Page 12
Section 29.7.4.2
"time0" --> "time 0"
Page 14
First (non-code) paragraph:
Put a space between collection and loadCollection.
"is allowed in tool" --> "is allowed in the tool"
"to create iterator" --> "to create the iterator"
"and then use vpi_scan()" --> "and then using vpi_scan()"
"tool allows provides" --> pick either allows or provides
Second paragraph:
"and may be its sub-scopes" --> "and maybe its subscopes"
Page 17
vpi_control() - Under Related routines there is an extra "only"
in the sentence.
