Hi,

Has anybody used the Incremental Pattern File tasks with vectors?
    ( $incpattern_write, $incpattern_read, $compare )

    According to Verilog-XL 1.6a Release Notes, the Incremental Pattern File
    tasks support both scaler and vectors, but that was not what I
    experienced.

I did not have any problems using the tasks when all my signals were scaler.
On the other hand every thing fell apart once at least one of my signals was
a vector.

	- $incpattern_write: Verilog did not report the signal name in
	    the Declarations for Incremental Stimulus File "file_name"

	- $incpattern_read: Did not read in the vectors properly which leads
			    me to believe that it was not saved properly,
			    or better yet not saved at all.

	- $compare: reports FALSE errors.

Your feedback is appreciated.
