Overriding UVM version obtained from vcs with a version of UVM from Accellera

[satishr]

Hi,

I am using VCS tool which has UVM 1.1 verison. I want to override this verison of uvm with the UVM 1.1c obtained from Accellera. Please let me know if this is possible and also please let me know the procedure

Thank you

Remove the following options/flags to VCS command:

-ntb_opts uvm

Add the following:

<your_custom_uvm_1.1c_dir>/src/uvm_pkg.sv (Look for exact path)

+incdir+<your_custom_uvm_1.1c_dir>/src

That should be it. Make sure you use latest release of tool.

Regards

Thanks for procedure. Do we need to add any flags/options when we include the uvm_pkg.sv

Hi,
Dont modify anything.
Just set VCS_UVM_HOME to point to the UVM src directory.
If you work in large company or team then probably you have wrapper scripts around VCS command and makefiles so changing VCS command-line is as difficult as changing source code.

i.e
setenv VCS_UVM_HOME /tmp/git/uvm/distrib/src

vcs -ntp_opts uvm ......
./simv ......

setenv VCS_UVM_HOME /tmp/git/uvm/distrib/src

That works

Thanks
