Is there any straightforward way to convert safely a variable of type uint32_t to sc_lv<32>?

[OMark]

Given a variable "data1" of type uint32_t and a output port "data2" of type sc_lv<32>,

can I safely do:

data2.write(data1)?

or shall I convert first the variable "data1" to a sc_lv<32> type of data?

Check IEEE Std 1666-2011 clause 7.9.8.2. sc_lv<32> has a constructor and assignment operator for uint64, so your approach should be safe. If you want to be more explicit, you can create the temporary sc_lv<32> object yourself before passing it to the write function.

Please read the IEEE-1666-2011 LRM (specifically section 7.9.6.5 Assignment operators).
