Class constructors are the "new" method in a class description.
Elaborate the constructor as an ordinary method, but the only
way to access this method is to implicitly call it. The elaborator
will take the constructor call and generate a naked "new" expression
and implicit constructor method call with the object itself as the
return value.
Rework lexical support for PACKAGE_IDENTIFIER so that the lexor
can help with package scoped identifiers.
Pform package types and package functions up to elaboration.
defparam assignments found inside a generate block were being stored
in the enclosing module scope. They should be stored in the generate
block scope.
Also removed the genvar list from the PGenerate class, as this is
already declared in the base LexicalScope class.
An important advantage of program blocks is its ability to nest
within a module. This winds up also allowing modules to nest, which
is legal but presumably less used feature.
This patch extends the compiler to support all specparam declarations
allowed by the 1364-2005 standard. For compatibility with other
simulators, it allows specparam values to be used in any constant
expression, but outputs a warning message and disables run-time
annotation of a specparam if it is used in an expression that must
be evaluated at compile time.
This is a cleanup in preparation for better support of range lists.

This gets me to the point where the parser stashes a defined type,
and the lexical analyzer uses the type names to differentiate
IDENTIFIER and TYPE_IDENTIFIER.
To avoid a variables not initialized in the construct this patch modifies
the PSpecPath class to take the polarity and full_flag as arguments to
the constructor.
This patch uses the full_flag to verify that the input and output have the
same width for a parallel connection. Icarus always uses a full connection
so this is just a portability issue with other simulators.
The pform dump code was also modified to correctly display the polarity
and full/parallel connection type.
