Question about cout and time

[Matthias Jung]

Hey,

is there a way or mechanism such that a cout or printf statement in an SC_METHOD is delayed to the last delta cycle before the time advances? Similar to the VCD traces? Such that only the last stable value is printed to the terminal.

Regards

In Accellera SystemC you can use simulation time callbacks. Check systemc/RELEASENOTES : ( Experimental features - Extended Simulation Phase Callbacks ). You will need SC_BEFORE_TIMESTEP callback.

But they are not yet part of IEEE standard, so portability is not guaranteed.
