Hi, In Draft 3, Stu wrote in 6.20.1, "If any param_assignments appear in a parameter_port_list, then any param_assignments that appear within the module, interface, program or class shall become local parameters and shall not be overridden by any method." Here Stu added "interface, program, or class". 6.20.4 says, "Unlike nonlocal parameters, local parameters can be declared in a generate block, in a package, or in a compilation-unit scope. In these contexts, the parameter keyword can be used as a synonym for the localparam keyword." BNF footnote 39 (Mantis 1515) says, "39) In a parameter_declaration that is a class_item, the parameter keyword shall be a synonym for the localparam keyword." So is every parameter declared in a class a local parameter, or only if there are parameters defined in the class header? What about interfaces and programs?
