Importing template classes from a package

archive
archive over 17 years ago

Hi, I have a package that contains some template classes. When I try to import these classes and specialize them in a module, I get a compilation error. Here's a simple example: // in file a.sv package a; class b#(int width = 5); bit[width:0] c; endclass endpackage // in file d.sv module d; import a::*; b#(6) b1; // this line gives compilation error endmodule // the commands I'm using to compile irun -svpp a.sv irun -svpp d.sv Can you please tell me what I'm doing wrong? Thanks, Avidan

    Avidan,

    As long as you're using svpp (and currently that's the only option if using type parameters) your template classes and their specializations have to reside in the same scope - either a package or a module.
