Hi Mareon,

 SystemC is C++ - you can do anything you like.

For instance, you could store configuration options in a file using

Boost:program_options (see
http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_40_0/doc/html/program_options.html)

Or you could store configuration options using hierarchical paths and 
values in a file, e.g.

mymod.uut.dut.a  2

Or you can set public data members hierarchically e.g. from the top level

myod.uut.dut.a = 2;

The only limit is your imagination - and the time you have available :-)

regards
Alan
