[sv-bc] RE: [sv-ec] Monitor on class handle.

Well I think that properties should be displayed for %p, IMHO it should be
allowed to use other specs (%d, %b, default) and print handle addres in
implementation dependent manner - for purposes I've mentioned in previous
mail.

Dave, 1750 says,
"Each element that is a singular type shall print its value as follows:

. A chandle, class handle, event, or virtual interface shall print its value
in an implementation dependent format, except that a null handle value shall
print the word null."

What is meant by the "value" of these? What is going to be printed (in an
implementation-dependent format)? Daniel thinks it means the fields
(properties, I guess) of the class in the case of a class handle. It's not
clear to me that that is the 'value' of the handle.

Thanks,
Shalom

But %p will display field values under that handle.
 What if we want to monitor only if the handle adress will change - ie after
new or after assigning to that handle another handle? IMHO it will be enough
to print just address.

Class handles, chandles, events, or virtual interface handles do not have
any corresponding format specifiers other than %p (Mantis 1750)

 

I believe Mantis 1971 is currently open to address the issue when a
non-aggregate (singular) value is used without a valid format specifier. I
believe that it should be illegal unless there is an implicit cast defined
to a type suggested by the format specifier.

Should class handle be allowed directly in $monitor ($display)?

Mantis  <http://www.eda-stds.org/svdb/view.php?id=331> 0000331 do not cover
this.

 

EXAMPLE:

 

module top;
 class C;
      int i;  
 endclass
 C c;
 initial   $monitor ("handle monitor: %t > %b",$time, c);   //<<is this
monitor correct?
endmodule
