NCsim and SystemVerilog issue

navis
navis over 16 years ago

 Hello all,

I have follow problem using SystemVerilog.

I'm writing some testbench. My test bench has some input and outputs ports. Thiese ports are delcared as a "logic". My class that handling this ports can't drive inputs and outputs. I beleive this ports should be interpreted as a global variables, and should be accessible by my class methods. But in practice this not happening.

 

Could someone have some ideas why this is happen.

 

Best regards and thanks

    Does this represent what you are asking about:

    module tb(input logic in, output logic out);

    endmodule

    class a_c;
      bit a, b;
      function new();
        a = in;
        b = out;
      endfunction
    endclass

    BTW, this does work:

    module tb(input logic in, output logic out);

    class a_c;
      bit a, b;
      function new();
        a = 0;
        update();
      endfunction
      function void update();
        a   = in;
        b   = a;
        out = b;
      endfunction
    endclass

    a_c a = new();

    assign #1 in = ~out;

    always @(in) begin
        a.update();
    end

    initial begin
      $monitor($time,,in,,out);
      #10 $finish;
    end

    endmodule
