RE: [sv-bc] {Filename?} mantis 676, 678

Don,
 
You seem to be connecting these two Manti and I don't think they are
intended to be connected.
 
678 is very simple.
If I have a vector a[31:0], the width of a part-select needs to be
constant. So I can write a[31:8] or a[i-:8], where i is a variable, but
I cannot write a[i:j] or a[i+:j] where i and j are variables. That is
the enhancement request.
 
Shalom

	Matt,
	
	Per the mantis items 676 and 678, I want to make sure I
understand the concepts of the proposal.  Does the following code
capture the intent of the issues?
	
	
	typedef logic [7:0] array_t [];
	
	function automatic array_t fmem (input int first, last);
	  array_t mem [first:last];
	  return(mem);
	endfunction 
	
	
	You name was listed as the initial author of these mantis items.
Is there someone else that I should be reviewing these items with?
	
	thanks
	
	dm
