<ul>

127
|
+
<li>Restored support for Enumerable methods in <code class="code"><span style="color:#036; font-weight:bold">Vpi</span>::<span style="color:#036; font-weight:bold">Handle</span></code>.</li>

<h2>Improvements</h2>
|
137
|
+
|
138
|
+
|
139
|
+
<ul>
|
140
|
+
<li>The <tt>bench.rb</tt> and <tt>bench.v</tt> files of a generated test have been eliminated!
|
141
|
+
|
142
|
+
<p>One important benefit is that the Ruby interface to the Verilog module under test is now a direct reference, whereas previously it was an <em>indirect</em> reference (it pointed to the Verilog module defined in <tt>bench.v</tt>, which in turn wrapped around the actual Verilog module under test).</p>
|
143
|
+
|
144
|
+
|
145
|
+
<p>As a result, you can now access the internals of the Verilog module under test by simply calling methods on the Ruby interface, as you would naturally expect to be the case.</p></li>
|
146
|
+
</ul>
|
147
|
+
|
148
|
+
|
149
|
+
<ul>
|
150
|
+
<li>The “a” accessor, which returns an <em>array</em> of child handles, has been added to <a href="manual.html#tbl:accessors">the method naming format</a> for accessing child handles.</li>
|
151
|
+
</ul>
|
152
|
+
|
153
|
+
|
154
|
+
<ul>
|
155
|
+
<li>All parameter objects in the Verilog module under test are automatically made available as constants. For example, if the Verilog module under test has the name <code class="code">counter</code> and has a parameter object named <code class="code"><span style="color:#036; font-weight:bold">WIDTH</span></code>, then you can access the integer value of that parameter using <code class="code"><span style="color:#036; font-weight:bold">Counter</span>::<span style="color:#036; font-weight:bold">WIDTH</span></code>.</li>
|
156
|
+
</ul>
|
157
|
+
|
158
|
+
|
159
|
+
<ul>
|
160
|
+
<li>The automated test generator now tries to automatically detect the clock and reset signal from Verilog module declarations.</li>

161
