Subject: [sv-ec] No event triggers in functions?


Hi folks,

The 1364-2005 draft 8 standard (the latest I've seen) states in section 
10.4.3 that functions cannot have any event triggers. Is this 
intentional? What's the rationale? Or, has it been worked on or changed 
since that draft was released? It's not obvious to me what the issue 
would be - triggering an event doesn't block the triggering process, nor

does it directly spawn any child threads. Triggering events from 
functions is something we would find it useful to be able to do.

Thanks,
