All- I have updated my vpiParent proposal (Mantis item #1684) to reflect my current view that "validity" (the vpiValid property) should not have a bearing on whether vpiParent for a given object exists. The fact that an object exists as compiled in the design (the "compile- invariant" point Jim mentioned for class-vars), in my view, is sufficient to justify allowing a vpiParent to exist for dynamic objects, even though their value may not be valid. If a handle to a design object can be obtained, its vpiParent handle must also be obtainable (for qualifying prefixes). I have corrected other minor errors including "validity" mentioned for the Nets section(!). As always, I welcome feedback.
