Hello everyone,
This is to inform and remind you that the recent revised
BIRD drafts which were distributed on this email list
have been all uploaded to the ATM web site:

i/Add%20Boolean%20to%20BNF%20for%20IBIS%20AMI%20BIRD%20draft%204/AMI_Boo

i/Out-InOut%20BIRD%20draft%2010/Out_InOut_BIRD_10.pdf
(the discussion on this one will take place after
the correction BIRD drafts have been all submitted).
In addition, a new revision of the AMI_ParametersOut_BIRD
draft has been just uploaded to the ATM website:
http://www.vhdl.org/pub/ibis/macromodel_wip/archive/20110614/arpadmurany
i/AMI_parameters_out%20Clarification%20BIRD%20draft%204/AMI_ParametersOu
t_BIRD_04.pdf
In this one I changed the first paragraph of the following
sections:
|* 3.1.2.7 AMI_parameters_out
|* ==========================
|* 3.1.2.9 msg
|* ===========
|* 3.2.2.4 AMI_parameters_out
|* ==========================
to make it clearer (especially for **msg) which AMI function
may use these arguments.
The question regarding this BIRD draft I would like to answer
in today's ATM meeting is whether it is sufficient to say which
function "may use" these string pointers, or whether we also have
to say which functions are "NOT allowed" to use them. For example,
should the description under **msg also say that AMI_GetWave is
not allowed to put a string pointer into the address pointed to
by the argument? As they say, if it can be done, it will be done...
Should we take the precautions and prevent that from happening?
Please be ready to discuss these BIRD drafts in the meeting today
and possibly vote on them for submission to the Open Forum if there
are no more questions.
Thanks,
Arpad
