How to do forward declaration of covergroup?
I put covergroup in class like below. This is compilation error by Xcelium saying no data type found.


// typedef covergroup cg; // <-- compile error 
class myclass;

   function new();
      cg = new();  // compile error
   endfunction

  covergroup cg;
  ... 
  endgroup
endclass

Thanks

This should work. I tried in two different tool.


class myclass;
 
   function new();
      cg = new();
   endfunction
 
  covergroup cg;
  ... 
  endgroup

endclass

Just move covergroup before new if it isn’t working for specific tool.


class myclass;

  covergroup cg;
  ... 
  endgroup
 
   function new();
      cg = new();
   endfunction

endclass
