[sv-bc] Itemized lists of issues for Draft 2 Chapter 7

Below are 3 proposed changes for chapter 7. I have attached the same
changes in PDF format for people who have trouble with the html email.

 

1) 7.1.1:

 

A structure represents a collection of variable data types that can be
referenced using the structure name as a whole or the individual data
types that make up the structure can be referenced by name. By default,
structures are unpacked, meaning that there is no defined representation
on how each variable in the collection is stored an
implementation-dependent packing of the data types. Unpacked structures
can contain any variable data type.

 

2) 7.1.2:

 

A union is a data type that represents a single piece of storage which
can store one of any variable type which can be accessed using one of
the named member data types. Only one variable type can be in a union at
one time of the data types in the union can be used at a time. By
default, a union is unpacked, meaning there is no required
representation for how members of the union are stored. Dynamic types
and chandle types can only be used in tagged unions.

 

3) In 7.6.10:

 

Change:

 

The conversion parses Verilog syntax for real constants.

 

TO:

 

The conversion parses Verilog syntax for real constants.
