Tagging uvm_errors in waveform file for post-processing

Hi,

Do anyone know if it's possible in simvision waveform viewer to see a timestamp of where uvm_errors/$errors occurred in a simulation via post-processing? 

Cheers,

Antonio

    Hi Antonio,

    There is a feature in Verisium Debug to send any log file message (not just UVM errors) from its "SmartLog" tool to the waveform, and a waveform trace will be plotted on-the-fly with a transition every time that message was generated. Here is a screenshot showing that for a UVM_INFO message:

    I strongly encourage you to upgrade from SimVision to Verisium Debug. I think you will find it's a great debug tool. Feel free to reach out to your Cadence AE to find out more  about it.

    You can also find more information about it here.

    Thanks.

    - Doug

    Hi Doug,

    Thanks for your reply.

    I didn't know about Verisium Debug, I'll investigate if we can use it!

    Does the smartlog tool also annotates the waveform for post-processing, or during live-debugging?

    In addition, do you know if Simvision provides this feature? Or is it just a new feature added to Verisium?

    Cheers,

    Antonio

    Hi Antonio,

    Yes, that feature is supported for both post process and interactive debug.

    It is a feature of Verisium Debug and not supported in SimVision.

    Thanks.
