RE: [sv-bc] Fwd: RE: 6.20.2 Value parameters - partially defined type - unpacked array

I think this example is probably well-defined.

However, note Mantis 3287, which points out a less clear case.

In chapter 6.20.2 LRM defines how should be the type parameter if its type is not fully defined.
This description misses the unpacked array type parameters.
Lets assume situation where there is only unpacked dimension defined - like below how it shuld behave. IMHO LRM should add description for such cases and similar cases ie only singes and unpacked dim defined, only packed range and unpacked dimension defined etc...
typedef shortint T[2];
module name;
  parameter p[2]=T'{1,2}; //LRM do not describe how this case should work while BNF allows such code.
  initial $display("%p", p);
  initial $display("%b", p[0], p[1]);
endmodule

module top;
  parameter int tp[2]= '{1,-1};
  name #(tp)uut2();
endmodule
