Same for me.

RE: SC_FORK and SC_JOIN

I don't particularly like the SC_FORK SC_JOIN macros - it would be good to
have a neater solution that made it simple to write fork .. join (and fork
.. join_none) in SystemC processes. However, I don't think there is time
to properly explore the best way to implement this now - it should be
something we next time instead.

Any other opinions? Otherwise I will leave SC_FORK/SC_JOIN alone.

Philipp - can you see any obvious way for this to fit with sc_vector, as
Bart was suggesting?

I would vote to leave it as is.

All,

Bart writes:
6.5.7: SC_FORK and SC_JOIN: isn?t the macro based approach a little dated?
Shouldn?t we standardize on an sc_fork_join API with an sc_vector for the
set of processes that are intended to be spawned?

[JA] What does everyone think? Do we want to consider such an enhancement
at this point? Note that sc_process_handle is not derived from sc_object,
so having an sc_vector of process handles is not possible at this point.
Having an sc_vector of process objects might be possible, but would be
unsafe.
