Hi Joao,
 
The one thing that seems missing is item (2) in my email below, I think we
need to add one more figure *LIKE* this one:

But with "multiclock property expr" -->> clocked property. Right ?
 
Can you squeeze that in and send to David again, seems this would add the
"multiclock property" support. (30.3 seems a bit empty I think you can throw
this in there).
 
Thx.
-Bassam.

Joao, [this is an html email so I can paste the fixes ...]

My apologies for this oversight on my part, somehow I never sent the first part out of this email earlier ... sorry about that. A couple of enhancements remain in the property part, here's what I see (in the rev you just sent out) to more accurately reflect draft3 (most are just additions similar to what you have already, so not a big issue, nothing is wrong, just need a bit more beef up ...): As far as I can tell this all I see.

PART I: Diagrams

1) vpiPropertyOpType needs to also have: vpiAnd, vpiOR, and if/else , see the following (draft3)

property_expr ::=

sequence_expr

| ( property_expr )

| not property_expr

| property_expr or property_expr

| property_expr and property_expr

| sequence_expr |-> [ not ] sequence_expr property_expr

| sequence_expr |=> [ not ] sequence_expr property_expr

| if ( expression ) property_expr [ else property_expr ]

| property_instance

2) property expr needs to also have "multiclock property expr" before/under property expr, and then a new diagram for "multiclock property expr" of the form (similar to property expr)

multi_clock_property_expr ::=

property_expr

! multi_clock_sequence

| clocking_event multi_clock_property_expr

| ( multi_clock_property_expr )

| not multi_clock_property_expr

| multi_clock_property_expr or multi_clock_property_expr

| multi_clock_property_expr and multi_clock_property_expr

| multi_clock_sequence |-> multi_clock_property_expr

| multi_clock_sequence |=> [ not ] multi_clock_sequence multi_clock_property_expr

| if ( expression ) multi_clock_property_expr [ else multi_clock_property_expr ]

| property_instance

3) Multi clock sequence expression also needs some enhancements (top figure in below, needs to be more enhanced with "ops" too

Add the following:

multi_clock_sequence::=

clocked_sequence { ## clocked_sequence }

sequence_expr

| clocking_event multi_clock_sequence

| ( multi_clock_sequence )

| multi_clock_sequence ## multi_clock_sequence

PART II: vpi_user.h: missing the assertion/coverage/Read VPI... what's the plan for this ?

Thx.

-Bassam.
