NAME
SystemC::Coverage - Coverage analysis utilities
SYNOPSIS
use SystemC::Coverage;
$Coverage = new SystemC::Coverage;
$Coverage->read (filename=>'cov1');
$Coverage->read (filename=>'cov2');
$Coverage->write (filename=>'cov_together');
DESCRIPTION
SystemC::Coverage provides utilities for reading and writing coverage data, usually produced by the SP_COVER_INSERT or SP_AUTO_COVER function of the SystemPerl package.
The coverage data is stored in a global hash called %Coverage, thus subsequent reads will increment the same global structure.
METHODS
- clear
-
Clear the coverage variables
- delete_item
-
Delete specified coverage item.
- inc (args..., count=>value)
-
Increment the coverage statistics, entering keys for every value. The last value is the increment amount. See SystemC::Coverage::Item for the list of standard named parameters.
- items
-
Return all coverage items, as a list of SystemC::Coverage::Item objects.
- items_sorted
-
Return all coverage items in sorted order, as a list of SystemC::Coverage::Item objects.
- new ([filename=>filename])
-
Make a new empty coverage container.
- read ([filename=>filename])
-
Read the coverage data from the file, with error checking.
- write ([filename=>filename])
-
Write the coverage variables to the file in a form where they can be read back by simply evaluating the file.
