"Failure to assign" error feedback
Example:
@h.module
class M:
i = h.Input()
o = h.Output()
s = h.Signal()
There is a similar-looking, but not-working, alternative one might write like so:
@h.module
class M:
h.Input(name="i")
h.Output(name="o")
h.Signal(name="s")
That "works", in the sense that Python will compile and execute it. But it is highly unlikely to be what the author intended. In the latter case the hdl21.Module
M
is empty.
Note I do not think the latter should "work". It would be nice to produce some kinda error or feedback though.
But - either "working" or just producing the error would seem to require some tracking of execution context, which I don't love.
Maybe something better will come up.
