That's the idea, yes. And yes, it is a language extension. SystemVerilog may have it as it is based on a Cadence proposal to the Verilog and SV groups. In fact in Icarus Verilog you can have logic and bool vectors, and real values. All of these things I expect to be able to pass around nets (including ports) like any other logic. If you see any bugs there, file it as a bug report not a feature request. - -- Steve Williams "The woods are lovely, dark and deep. steve at icarus.com But I have promises to keep, http://www.icarus.com and lines to code before I sleep, http://www.picturel.com And lines to code before I sleep." -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.5 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFEX6hBrPt1Sc2b3ikRAihuAJ43wegJJnGupqWZU6gNvfHNeftxugCcDnAE DvVcsLaGTAmz8J91h2hM9ZY= =2t7a -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
