Reply To: Code Coverage with Aldec Riviera Pro

[Jim Lewis]

Hi Michael,
I may have specified an extra attribute during simulation. You can adjust for this by doing:
SetCoverageSimulateOptions "-acdb_cov sbm -cc_all"

But it still did not report anything, so I read more into the the Aldec Riviera-PRO reference manual:
> Riviera-PRO does not automatically recognize the finite state machines from code. The user should embed the dedicated pragmas within code in order to obtain the coverage statistics.

So for the statemachine in UartRx.vhd from OsvvmLibraries/UART/src, I added the following attributes to the process

UartRxStateProc : process
  begin
    -- Aldec enum RxStateType CURRENT=RxState
    -- Aldec enum RxStateType STATES=RX_IDLE,RX_HUNT,RX_DATA,RX_PARITY,RX_STOP,RX_BREAK
    wait until Uart16XClk = '1' ;

That got this example working. Although, I am not sure it is so happy that I used the wait statement in my 1 process statemachine.

Best Regards,
Jim
