Ambrish,
I was actually thinking about that myself, but decided not
to do it. If you looked at those sections, you will see
that only section 3.1.2.6 contains information on what the
syntax of this string is (the originally 8, now 9 points):
|** The syntax for the parameter string is:
|
|** 1. The parameter and message strings passed through the AMI_parameters_in,
|** AMI_parameters_out and msg arguments must not be enclosed in double
|** quotes.
|** 2. Neither names nor individual values except for string literals may
|** contain white space characters.
...
...
...
The sentence in the paragraph you quoted is really referring
to this syntax explanation, not the first two paragraphs of
the rules on AMI_parameters_in, or AMI_parameters_out, or msg.
If you asked me, that syntax explanation really shouldn't be
under 3.1.2.6, but I would think that we can let the editorial
committee decide where to move it if we don't like where it is...
Thanks,
Arpad

Arpad,
I would also add 'and section 3.1.2.7' in the following lines as we separated
AMI_parameters (in and _out) to their own respective sections:
| The model parameter file must be organized in the parameter
|* tree format as described in section 3.1.2.6 of "NOTES ON
| ALGORITHMIC MODELING INTERFACE AND PROGRAMMING GUIDE",
|* Section 10 of this document.
Thanks,
Ambrish.

Hello everyone,
Now that we finalized BIRD 137.1, I revisited BIRD 127.1 and
reworded the two paragraphs which are related to BIRD 137.1.
The result, BIRD 127.2 is in the attachment, but here are the
changes for your convenience:
BIRD 127.1 contained these two paragraphs:
|* The EDA tool must pass a string to the AMI executable model
|* through the AMI_parameters_in argument which contains all of
|* the leaf/value pair formatted Usage In and Usage InOut AMI
|* parameters defined in the .ami file and nothing else.
|*
|* The AMI executable model must return a string to the EDA tool
|* through the AMI_parameters_out argument which contains all of
|* the leaf/value pair formatted Usage InOut and Usage Out AMI
|* parameters defined in the .ami file and nothing else.
which were changed to this in BORD 127.2:
|* The EDA tool must pass a string to the AMI executable model
|** through the AMI_parameters_in argument. This string must
|** contain all of the leaf/value pair formatted Usage In and
|** Usage InOut AMI parameters if there are any defined in the
|** .ami file. No other information may be included in this
|** string. The string must always include the root name of
|** the parameter tree, even if there are no parameters to pass
|** to the algorithmic model.
|*
|* The AMI executable model must return a string to the EDA tool
|** through the AMI_parameters_out argument. This string must
|** contain all of the leaf/value pair formatted Usage InOut and
|** Usage Out AMI parameters if there are any defined in the
|** .ami file. No other information may be included in this
|** string. The string must always include the root name of
|** the parameter tree, even if there are no parameters to return
|** to the EDA tool.
Please send me your questions, comments. If I get an overwhelming
agreement on this by the end of the day, I will submit it to the
Open Forum tonight. Otherwise we can discuss it in the next ATM
teleconference on Tuesday.
Thanks,
Arpad
