Byte 2 ASCII

archive

Hi @all,

I have a problem with the string-class. I want to do the following:
The user gives me a string, which he wants to send. Then my class will append (at the very beginning) a preamble. The user was allowed to choose the preamble himself. It consists of 8 Bit, so I have elected the byte-Type for this.
For test purposes, I have printed the whole byte, binary and decimal, and it works.

Now, I want to append this byte at the beginning, but I don't know, how I can achieve this.
For example, if the decimal value ist 48, there should be an zero, because 48 is zero in ASCII table.

Thank you very much for your help!
Sebastian

  • Hi Sebastian,
          As per LRM, string.getc() should return a byte and not integer. I'm not clear about your exact requirement, but to me it looks like your complicating the problem than what's really needed. Perhaps you want to use untyped mailbox? Not a great idea, but if it simplifies coding, why not? If you use a good methodology around SystemVerilog, then you get those fancy "channels" (be it: tlm_fifo/vmm_channel/OVM_) that are more powerful than mailboxes.
