Trace Enum values using sc_trace

Recommended Posts

Hey I was just wondering if this feature is being addressed. Currently adding a trace for an enum seems to generate a misleading trace.

At the very least it should error out if this is not supported.

Correctly tracing the int values would be better.

But in reality we should be able to trace the enums directly. This is something we were able to in do VHDL simulators 30 years ago.

Hello @SteveF,

The enum tracing support is deprecated.

You can find relevant discussions here:

There was another discussion about creating a mapping file between values and strings for usage in GtkWave for viewing VCD traces but currently unable to locate it.

Will probably update the response or someone else can post the link to relevant discussion.

Hope this small insight helps.

Regards,
