Arpad,
I have one comment re:
|** 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. An empty parameter or message string is valid pointer to a
|** null byte.
|** 2. Neither names nor individual values can contain white space
characters.
Specifically, individual values that are of (Type String) may contain
white space within the ".." pair that defines the value of a string.
Walter

Agenda
======
1) Opens
2) Call for any related patent disclosures
3) Review of ARs:
Arpad: Update BIRD 137 with the comments in the last ATM meeting
- done (see attachments)
Arpad: Update BIRD 127 according to the rules in BIRD 137
- pending
Any other AR-s?
Old ARs:
Arpad: Review the documentation (annotation) in the macro libraries.
- deferred until a demand arises or we have nothing else to do
4) Backchannel BIRD draft update (Ken)
- discussion, questions, comments?
5) BIRD 137 (Arpad)
- My notes from the last meeting say:
In 5.1 say: Never be a null pointer, always point to a string
which contains the root name.
This conflicts the notes I took in the same meeting:
Null pointer,
Pointer to a null,
String with root name only
Which rule do we want?
6) Parameter string syntax question
- See BIRD137.1 definition for parameter and message strings
- this includes now the definition of empty parameter and
message strings
- See BIRD 135.1 for the definition of empty string parameters
(under #8)
7) BIRD 127.1 needs to be corrected, because it contradicts the
the AMI_parameters_in/out string rules (optional vs. must):
|* 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.
8) BIRD 121.1, data management parameters (file support) (Walter)
- discussion, questions, comments?
9) BIRD 122; Analog Buffer BIRD (Walter)
- replaced with ISS_Buffer_BIRD.doc
10) BIRD 123.2.2, jitter parameters (includes Row 37) (Walter)
- review latest changes and graphics
- do these changes answer the questions raised before:
- remove Usage Out from the BIRD? or
- specify which function (Init or GetWave) can return values?
- specify what the EDA tool should do with the returned values?
11) BIRD 124.1, dependency table (Walter)
- questions, comments?
12) Info, Out, InOut BIRD (Arpad)
- latest wording includes "in order to be compliant with this
specification, Model_Specific parameters ... must not ...",
and omits the word "simulation" so it's meaning doesn't have
to be defined
- any comments, questions on this draft?
Thanks,
Arpad
