| Summary | 0008102: Optional semicolon | ||||||||
| Description | Current semicolon rules are context sensitive and are impossible to be defined properly in grammars without not-predicates/look-ahead (yacc, Bison, ...). I propose to make the semicolon optional. Open question: How could we handle conflicts such as: alt { var integer a[x] [y] p.receive } | ||||||||

TTF Discussion: Benefits unclear, tools are differently implemented. |

Axel, can you have a look? |

From the user perspective the semicolon supports readability and avoids unnecessary conflicts or misunderstanding. TTCN-3 is still a specification language and not only for implementation/programming. In certain cases the semicolon might be avoided and become optional and specified in A.1.2. These explicit cases should be proposed and checked. |

TTF discussion: CR cannot be implemented at the moment. TTF agrees that semicolons support readability and understandability of the language. |

In general, we(TF160) like the strict use of semicolons not at least as it may help tools to do automatic indentation. In addition, there seems to be no real benefit from a user's point of view to allow semicolons to be optional. |
