EPWave: Multidimensional Signals / packed / unpacked arrays

[Abarajithan Gnaneswaran]

Hi,

I would like to view and debug signals like these:

• logic [7:0] unpacked_array [3:0]
• logic [3:0][7:0] packed_array

and their multidimensional counterparts. But

• $dumpvars(0,  unpacked_array [i]) in a loop gives an error: Automatic variable may not be used in non-procedural context.
  
• $dumpvars(0,  packed_array]) shows it as a flat 8x4=32 bit vector. Unreadable
• $dumpvars avoids multidimensional arrays

Any solutions?

I'm developing some open source teaching materials to introduce systemverilog to more people.

Thank you,

Aba

Hi Abarajithan, 

Please share your code. I am doing the following: https://www.edaplayground.com/x/rVsk
and I see this from the waveforms: 

And it looks pretty good to me. 

Cheers,

Stefano

Great. It seems Xcelium dumps unpacked arrays as well. I was using VCS
