sc_port get_interface() method

[rahuljn]

Hello

 

1. In IEEE doc @112, I see the following

Because the time at which deferred port binding is completed is implementation defined, it is implementation defined whether get_interface returns a pointer to a channel or a null pointer.

 

So where I shoudl check whether the port is bounded or not and accordingly take action so that my code works fine with all implementations.

 

2. For a multiport how to get all interfaces connected to that port. The get_interface returns only the pointer to first channel instance

 

Thanks

Check following member functions described in IEEE1666-2011

5.12.8 Member functions for bound ports and port-to-port binding

 

5.12.8.1 size

5.12.8.2 operator->

5.12.8.3 operator[]

 

Looks like everything should be bound before end_of_elaboration callback

 

 

You can also look into reference SystemC implementation source code to get the details.
