Hello,

I have an associative array of enum with another enum as a key to associative array. Currently UVM doesn’t have field macro to register this in the UVM factory.

I am getting below warning if I use “`uvm_field_aa_int_enumkey”

======================================================================
`uvm_field_aa_int_enumkey(e_cmd_type, scen_dist, UVM_ALL_ON)
|
ncelab: *W,ENUMERR (./testbench.sv,37|69): This assignment is a violation of SystemVerilog strong typing rules for enumeration datatypes.

Is there anyway I can avoid this warning?

You can avoid this by not using the UVM field macros. They are extremely inefficient and it is better to code the underlying structures yourself.

Hi Cgales,

Thanks for the response.

Since the macro “`uvm_field_aa_enum_enumkey” is not available in the UVM package we defined it in our local environment and did an explicit cast to the enum type to fix this.

Thanks,
Jay
