RSpec error

Kazunori Kimura — 2011-06-20T07:41:41

Hi,

I tried to use ruby-vpi-21.1.0 follows environment:

OS : Debian Linux x86-64
Linux Version : 2.6.37.2
Ruby Version : 1.8.7
ruby-vpi version : 21.1.0

When I run 'rake vsim PROTOTYPE=1' in example/counter/RSpec directory,
RSpec module not found.

# LoadError: no such file to load -- spec

I checked RSpec version by 'gem list'. RSpec's version was 2.6.0.
then, I tried to follows

ruby -e "require 'rubygems'; require'rspec'"

this command works. so, I modified counter_spec.rb . replace 'spec' to
'rspec'.

then, I tried 'rake vsim PROTOTYPE=1' one more. but follows error ocurred.

NoMethodError: undefined method `setup' for #<Class:0x7f5230a464e0>

I check RSpec 2.6.0 document. there are no 'setup' mothod.
document uses 'before(:each)' instead of 'setup'

I replaced 'setup' to 'before(:each)'. and then 'rake vsim PROTOTYPE=1'.
error messages were not appeared. but, there were no test result mesasge.

How do I get correct result with 'rake vsim PROTOTYPE=1'.

Best regards

Accessing array of wires

Robert Smolinski — 2010-03-17T05:46:08

Hi,

I'm just starting out on Ruby-VPI and I'm a little lost on how handles 
are accessed in this specific case.

I have a "reg [79:0] mem[31:0]", I'd like to access mem[0] and such, but 
I can't find the specific ruby syntax to do so. Is it even possible to 
access it?

Thank you.
Rob.

Ruby-VPI - VCS Core Dump iterating for DefParams

Josh Gold — 2009-10-20T22:56:49

Hi All,

I've run into a problem using Ruby-VPI in VCS trying to iterate over the 
defparams.  Every interface in the vpiModule can be accessed correctly 
without any issues.  The only issue occurs when trying to read the 
vpiDepParam objects.  The error is a core dump in VCS.  This issue seems 
to be regardless to version as VCS fails on both 2006.06-sp1 and 
2009.06.  I am using ruby-vpi version 21.1.0 as well.

The core dump occures on the following code section:

defparamIterater = vpi_iterate(vpiDefParam, designHandle)  

while(defParamHandle = vpi_scan(defparamIterater))
    p defParamHandle
end

The error that VCS reports before the stack traces are dumped is:

Internal error in tool's source file "../vir/vir.cc" line 311.
Please send these messages to vcs_support-HKixBCOQz3gU04JRNCRQjg< at >public.gmane.org

Again, this only occurs when trying to view design defparams.  Has 
anyone seen this error before?  I was hoping this was something someone 
has seen before because its hard to imagine that there is a
