Get verbosity from a module

[mrussell98]

How can I get the current verbosity from within a module?

 

I am trying to do something like this but the module can't find the function that returns the verbosity level.

 

initial begin

  int prev_level;

  prev_level = get_report_verbosity_level();

  case (prev_level)

      default: ;

  endcase

 

end

A module isn't a class derived from uvm_report_object, so class methods aren't available.

You could do something like uvm_top.get_report_verbosity_level() (assuming you've imported uvm_pkg of course)

Thanks Alan, this is the code that worked for me.

 

import uvm_pkg::*;

 

module top

 

initial begin

  int prev_level;

  prev_level = uvm_top.get_report_verbosity_level();

  case (prev_level)

      default: ;

  endcase

 

end

 

endmodule
