RE: [sv-ec] Mantis 2279 (randomize syntax feedback)

Hi,

I'd like to propose a small change to version 2a.

The text in 17.7 is currently:

The syntax for randomize()...with is as follows:

inline_constraint _declaration ::=
	class_variable_identifier . randomize [ ( [
variable_identifier_list | null ] ) ]
		with constraint_block

Syntax 17-9-In-line constraint syntax (not in Annex A)

The class_variable_identifier is the name of an instantiated object.

=======

The proposal says:

REPLACE contents of syntax box 17-9 (in clause 17.7) with this text
taken from A.8.2,
and update the caption to reflect this change:

randomize_call ::=
	randomize { attribute_instance }
		[ ( [ variable_identifier_list | null ] ) ]
		[ with [ ( [identifier_list] ) ] constraint_block ]

======

The problem is that it is then not clear that this randomize_call is
used as a class method, and the following paragraph, "The
class_variable_identifier is the name of an instantiated object,"
becomes an orphan.

So I propose the following:

inline_constraint _declaration ::=
// not in Annex A
	class_variable_identifier . randomize_call

randomize_call ::=
// from A.8.2
	randomize { attribute_instance }
		[ ( [ variable_identifier_list | null ] ) ]
		[ with [ ( [identifier_list] ) ] constraint_block ]

Syntax 17-9-Inline constraint syntax (not in Annex A)

The class_variable_identifier is the name of an instantiated object.

======

Thanks,
Shalom
