Re: compiler directive with formal arguments

Ah!  I didn't actually look at the proposal for 1119,
because the description and additional information
did not mention argument substitution.

But the proposal (which was accepted at the Oct 9, 2006
SV-BC CC) clearly says:


Macro substitution and argument substitution shall not occur within strings. For example,

and gives an example:
  `define H(x) "Hello, x" 
  $display(`H(world));
will print
  Hello, x
