Callbacks Vs Virtual functions

UVM

Hi,

I was trying to understand what UVM callbacks implement. When I tried to understand the difference between a callback and what virtual functions helps us to, I feel they both are same ( Not sure ).

Incase they are really giving us same functionality, Why do we have a callback mechanism ?

Thanks,
Venkatesh

I am not sure where you read virtual function and callback are do same work.

Virtual function are related to polymorphism concept.
However, callbacks provides hook to access some of method when it required.

To, know about callback you can refer below link
