Auto_config

UVM

Hi,
I agree that using uvm_field_* macros decrease performance and hinders debug. My question is that how to use Auto configuration of Config DB without using a uvm_field_macro_* ? (set and no get)

Thanks in Adv

There are more serious reasons to avoid field macros.
If you do not use them there is no automatic generation of the functions needed for the seq_item.
You have to implement them on your own.
Using a UVM Framework Generator it is doing this for you.

Agree , But while implementing an automatic config of config_fb ie with set and no get , i did feel that `uvm_field_int macro registration was mandatory. How can i implement Auto config of config_db without using a uvm_field_int ?

Thanks

Nothing is mandatory in this field. And you should not rely on ‘automatic_config’.
Using the set/get pairwise is the recommended way of doing configurations.
