Re: [sv-bc] RE: [sv-ec] Query for Iterator index querying

But according to the example mentioned in SV LRM(sec 5.15.4), item is 
not an unpacked array.
So is the following testcase is valid one?

testcase:
-------
int arr[] ;
int q[$];
 q = arr.find with ( item == item.index );

If it is valid then what is the value of item.index?
What is the difference between item.index(1) and item.index?
Another question is  whether iterator can be an unpacked array as here 
item is treated as iterator?


Thanks,

Moumita
