Environment
Description
From Dan Jacobi, SV-BC19-23:

In A.4.1.1 et al,

module_instance ::= name_of_instance ( [ list_of_port_connections ] )

The square brackets are redundant.
An empty port list can be parsed by list_of_port_connections ->
ordered_port_connection.


Shalom: I don't like this one so much. It's correct, but it really makes the
empty port list possibility much less obvious. Is it a problem?


Fix
Change rejected by ETF on 2/10/03

In 12.1.2 (Sytnax 12-2) and A.4.1.1,

module_instance ::=
name_of_instance ( [ list_of_port_connections ] )

The square brackets are redundant.
An empty port list can be parsed by list_of_port_connections ->
ordered_port_connection.

CHANGE TO:

module_instance ::=
name_of_instance ( list_of_port_connections )
