I noted the following items in the sections for the 3/24/03 meeting.

CH119

a. Section 12.7.1 wait_order(), 4th paragraph, begins with "The action taken.."

   The else statement is referred to as the fail statement. Didn't we
   reverse this in the ASWG such that the first statement is the fail
   statement?

I do not believe that is the case. That may have been the case for the "catch"
operator, but that has been dropped. However, we have already agreed that
the semantics should be the same as for assert, and if assert has changed
that then we'll change it here too.

CH121

a. Section 20.9

   I might be wrong, but I thought there was more disagreement on this
   section in the last meeting than is reflected here.

I believe that after the discussion we agreed that this was OK since it means
the same thing in constraints and assertions.

b. Section 13.2, last sentence

   The wording here isn't quite right.

      "Unless a hierarchical_expression is used, both the signal and the
       clocking domain name shall be the same."

   It isn't the name of the clocking domain itself that is the same, rather
   it is the name of the clocking_item that will be the same as the signal
   name.

      "Unless a hierarchical_expression is used, both the signal and the
       clocking_item names shall be the same."

You are correct. We should change it as indicated by Neil. There is another
previous change that got lost here, anonymous was changed to unnamed.

c. Section 13.14, examples

   Shouldn't all of these be using <= in place of =? (see CH113)

d. Section 5.3

   "The arguments to the new method must be constant literals."

   Aren't expressions also allowed? (see text of 5.3 in LRM).

Yes, absolutely.

I had a few minor wording corrections:

CH119

1. Section 12.6, 3rd paragraph, next to last sentence

   In this section of the sentence "...or use the wait()..." get rid of the
   word 'use'.

OK.

2. Section 12.6.3, 3rd paragraph, 2nd sentence
 
       "The trigger property..." could be re-written to be
       "The triggered event property..."

It reads that way now.

3. Section 12.6.3

   There are a couple of words that got hyphenated in the previous writeup.
   They now need to be un-hyphenated.

        synchro-nization
        exam-ple

It reads that way now.

4. Section 12.8.1

exam-ple

It reads that way now.

CH122

1. Section 5.4

expres-sions

It reads that way now.
