Re: PLI task force needs clarifications on automatic functions

Good morning all:

Cliff has done an excellent job of describing the new functionality of
tasks and functions. I would like to expand on only the last statement
made.

Cliff said, "I believe the BTF never intended that recursively spawned automatic
functions be hierarchically referenced (what would be the name of the 3rd
recursively called function?) or accessed through the PLI."

I am hoping that the automatic state is accessible through the PLI for the
purposes of debugging simulations. E.g. I want to see the state of the
automatic functions/tasks in signalscan.
