(j3.2006) Host association and the IMPORT statement

[Malcolm Cohen]

The claim that 8.8 does not say anything about host association when there is no IMPORT statement is mistaken.

 

It?s the last sentence of p4, which is not too hard to find because p4 is what describes the normal host association effect!  (IMPORT with no list or specifier).

Subject: (j3.2006) Host association and the IMPORT statement

 

Subclause 19.5.1.4 says that a nested scoping unit has access to named
entities from its host as specified in 8.8. Subclause 8.8 does not say
anything about host association that occurs if there is no IMPORT
statement. There does not appear to be another place, other than
19.5.1.4, that explains host association. Thus, there appears to be a
contradiction, or we messed up host association when we introduced the
text about the additional features of the IMPORT statement.
