RE: [sv-bc] RE: [sv-ec] svlog enum function usage & maven query

Relevant LRM examples from 8.11

    b1.a.j // reaches into a, which is a property of b1
    p.next.next.next.val // chain through a sequence of handles to get
to val

Shalom,

See the first bullet in

   http://www.eda-stds.org/sv-ec/hm/1519.html

I think such a use of class methods was considered so obvious that a
need for special additional text did not occur to anybody.

Brad,

This was discussed in the recent past by email, with no resolution. I
don't think there is any strong evidence in the LRM that this was
intended to be allowed. There is no statement to that effect, nor is
there any such example. Such a feature would not be a corner case, but a
fundamental part of the method functionality, and it would have had to
be stated explicitly.

I opened Mantis 2272 on this.

Shalom
