Suppose we have a super.new that expects one int argument, how about these two cases? case 1: conditional call ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ function new(int A); if (A!=0) super.new(A); else super.new(-1); ... case 2: call with function or expression in arguments ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ function new (int A); super.new(A-1); // or even... // super.new(some_function(A)); At least one simulator let me get away with case 1 the last time I tried it. I haven't checked case 2. Clearly it involves something being executed before super.new, and yet it looks fairly sensible (especially if some_function is a static method of the class). -- Jonathan Bromley, Consultant DOULOS - Developing Design Know-how VHDL * Verilog * SystemC * e * Perl * Tcl/Tk * Project Services Doulos Ltd.
