Hello,

How is a C function able to call a SV task and wait until its complete? Shouldn’t a C function execute in zero simulation time?

Thank you

In reply to Ivon:

C has no concept of “simulation time”, only SystemVerilog does.

See my DVCon paper “Easy Steps Towards Virtual Prototyping using the SystemVerilog DPI” for some background.
