Re: Analog function question

Hi Arpad,

Not sure why you think LRM doesnt support arrays. According to BNF (LRM 
2.2):

function_item_declaration ::=
input_declaration
| inout_declaration
| output_declaration
| block_item_declaration

block_item_declaration ::=
parameter_declaration
| integer_declaration
| real_declaration

And if you look at integer_declaration and real_declaration

integer_declaration ::= integer list_of_identifiers ;

real_declaration ::= real list_of_identifiers ;

list_of_identifiers ::= var_name { , var_name }
var_name ::= variable_identifier
                      | array_identifier array_range

(The above is also detailed in section 3.1)

cheers,
Sri
