RE: Macros and semicolons

I also agree that we should mandate the use of semicolons for these macros, especially as it makes simple the calculation of indentation by various editing software;

Just trying to clear up a few odds-and-ends...

The LRM does not make it clear whether or not a trailing semicolon is required or permitted after the invocation of macros SC_METHOD, SC_THREAD, SC_HAS_PROCESS etc, although a trailing semicolon is shown in every example, and I think it has become standard practice in the SystemC community to include the semicolon.

The LRM does say that the definition of each of the macros is implementation-defined, which would make it implementation-specific whether the trailing semicolon is actually necessary.

I propose we mandate the inclusion of the trailing semicolon.

AGREE? DISAGREE? COMMENTS?

Agreed :-)
