If you wanted to prohibit the testbench from running further after it stops, use std.env.finish instead. It also allows an integer parameter, so you can call it as:
std.env.finish(GetAlertCount) ;

Given @Chengshan mentioned Aldec, I thought I would mention that ActiveHDL in batch mode doesnt currently return the value from finish() or stop() or…[Read more]

Your Script has a couple of things out of order. Specifically
VendorCovApiPkg.vhd must be compiled before CoveragePkg.vhd,
OsvvmContext.vhd must be compiled last (or almost last),
RandomPkg.vhd must be compiled before CoveragePkg.vhd,
ScoreboardGenericPkg.vhd must be compiled before ScoreboardPkg_int.vhd and ScoreboardPkg_slv.vhd.

Hi Tim,
Sorry I missed your additional discussion.

This warning is ok. The code is legal VHDL code. It would be more obvious if they would print the message as:

Warning: NULL_RANGE_TYPE has a null range, Range 0 downto 1

Null ranges are legal. Often people end with them unintentionally, so the vendors decided to issue a warning.…[Read more]

Meant to say one warning in the previous message.

I got it to compile now with one error.

Hi Tim,
> Is OSVVM supported by the latest Synopsys VCS-MX?
It is my understanding that it is, however, I have not done any testing with it – yet. Hopefully toward the end of the year, that will be changing.

> I didn’t notice any scripts in the OsvvmLibaries/Scripts repository.
It is on my todo list. Does VCS-MX have a tcl interface or do y…[Read more]
