Mantis item 978 has been updated, based on the feedback from the July 10th meeting, as well as a bugnote filed by Shalom. There were a few more syntax errors that were corrected. I also moved the paragraph from 5.15.1 to 5.15 which discusses the optional array iterator argument since it applies to all of the array manipulation methods. I believe that mantis 978 is now ready for an email vote. After looking over this section in more detail I have the following two questions: 1. 5.15.2 Array ordering methods reverse() may be used on packed or unpacked arrays. sort() and rsort() may only be used on unpacked arrays. The LRM doesn't mention if shuffle() may be used on packed or unpacked arrays. Should shuffle() only be allowed on unpacked arrays? 2. 5.15 Array manipulation methods Is it an error to specify the name of an iterator when there is no corresponding 'with' clause? Syntax box 5-3 implies that it is legal. There are 4 other mantis items that deal with this same section of the LRM. 1038 5.15.2 Array ordering methods - only 1-D arrays? 1437 Prototype syntax for array locator methods in 5.15.1 is not legal 1490 Array ordering methods on associative arrays 1517 Array reduction methods used in constraints -- --------------------------------------------------------------------- Neil Korpusik Tel: 408-720-4852 Senior Staff Engineer Fax: 408-720-4850 Frontend Technologies - ASICs & Processors (FTAP) Sun Microsystems email: neil.korpusik@sun.com ---------------------------------------------------------------------Received on Tue Jul 11 13:01:35 2006
