Current Situation

void exec_proc(vhpiCbDataT cbDatap) {
  vhpiHandleT subpCallHdl, formal1, formalIt;
  int val = 0;
  vhpiValueT value;

  value.format = vhpiIntVal;
  value.value->integer = &val;
  subpCallHdl = cbDatap->obj;

  /* get a handle to the first formal parameter
     of the subprogram call */
  formal1 = vhpi_handle_by_index(vhpiParamDecls, subpCallHdl, 0);

  switch(vhpi_get(vhpiModeP, formal1)) {
  case vhpiIN:
    vhpi_get_value(formal1, &value);
    break;
  case vhpiOUT:
    vhpi_put_value(formal1, &value);
    break;
  default:
    break;
  }
}

Proposed Resolution

void exec_proc(vhpiCbDataT cbDatap) {
  vhpiHandleT subpCallHdl, formal1, formalIt;
  int val = 0;
  vhpiValueT value;

  value.format = vhpiIntVal;
  value.value.intg = &val;
  subpCallHdl = cbDatap->obj;

  /* get a handle to the first formal parameter
     of the subprogram call */
  formal1 = vhpi_handle_by_index(vhpiParamDecls, subpCallHdl, 0);

  switch(vhpi_get(vhpiModeP, formal1)) {
  case vhpiIN:
    vhpi_get_value(formal1, &value);
    break;
  case vhpiOUT:
    vhpi_put_value(formal1, &value, vhpiDepositPropagate);
    break;
  default:
    break;
  }
}
