Basic syntax of e-language

Specman e-language is case sensitive in nature for both the predefined syntax keywords and user-defined names.
The name my_struct_s and my_STRUCT_S are both different structs defined in the e-language.

struct my_struct_s {
--- Action to be performed
}

struct my_STRUCT_S {
---- Action to be performed
}

Here struct is a specman e-language keyword.

The important aspect of the e-language is that the e-code written should be within the delimiters (e.g <' '>) and the code written outside the delimiters are considered as comments. In order to have single inline comments within the delimiters we can have both the VHDL / Verilog format ( e.g -- or // ) .

Ex :
The below code shows a sample e-language code structure
<'
struct my_packet_s {
// Field Declaration ( single line comment)
Addr : byte;
Data : byte;
Len : uint (bits:6);
method_name() is {
--- Action required
}
}; // end of struct my_packet_s
