Hi,

 

    Generally speaking, an SC_MODULE is a block of hardware.  So, while
in C++ you may be tempted to do multiple inheritance from two
SC_MODULES, I don't understand the usefulness of this for hardware
modeling.

 

   Perhaps its better to either (1) have a non-sc_module class that you
can inherent from and into sc_modules (2) instantiate the sc_modules
into higher sc_modules, which is hardware instantiation.

 

  It's funny there was just another post, of someone trying to do a
similar task.  Is there some book or professor teaching this?

Subject: [systemc-forum] deriving module from multiple module

 

hii community,

I am a new to systemC and facing a problem of deriving a module from
multiple module.


I would like to ask that " How to Derive a module from multiple module?"

Though I tried to solve my problem in following way but I  got few
errors mentioned below the given program


#include<systemc.h>

class base_module: virtual public sc_module
{
  public:
  sc_core::sc_event ev1;
 
     void process(void)
      {
      }

             SC_HAS_PROCESS(base_module);
               base_module(sc_module_name nm):sc_module(nm)
                  {
                  SC_METHOD(process);
              sensitive<<ev1;
                }
                        
 };

class base_module2: virtual  public sc_module

     {
        public:
         sc_core::sc_event ev2;
           void process2(void)
           {
           }
            SC_HAS_PROCESS(base_module2);
         base_module2(sc_module_name nm):sc_module(nm)
           {
                   SC_METHOD(process2);
            sensitive<<ev2;
           }
     };
 class derived_module : public base_module,  public base_module2
{ 
    public:
       SC_HAS_PROCESS(derived_module)

;
       derived_module ( sc_module_name nm
):sc_module(nm),base_module(nm),base_module2(nm)
            {
             SC_THREAD(proc);
          }  
        void proc()
        {
              ev1.notify();
              ev2.notify();
        } 
};
