Unresolved reference to 'this' for non-static field 'pkt'

SystemVerilog

Hi all,

I have just started learning about SV environment and was trying to build an environment, i am facing an error " Unresolved reference to ‘this’ for non-static field ‘pkt’ " in the generator code:-

`include "stimul.sv"
class gen;
	packet1 pkt;
	typedef mailbox #(pkt) in_box_type;
	in_box_type in_box=new();
	string name;
	int number_packets;
	function new(string name="packets",int number_packets);
		this.name=name;
		this.number_packets=number_packets;
	endfunction
	extern task start();
endclass
task gen::start();
	for(int i=0;i<number_packets;i++)
	begin
		pkt=new;
		if(pkt.randomize())
			in_box.put(pkt);
	$display(" from %s , number of packet: %d",this.name,in_box.num());
	end
endtask

the stimul.sv :-

class packet1;
	randc bit data;
	bit count;
	bit reset;
	string name;
	function new(string name="from stimuli");
		this.name=name;
	endfunction
endclass

Please use code tags making your code easier to read. I have added them for you. It would also help to put a comment in your code indicating which line is producing the error.

I believe the problem is with your typedef statement. It should be

typedef mailbox #(packet1) in_box_type;
