Hi Sundeep,

The exception may be due to some other reason like the event or the A module instance pointed by A_ptr being deleted or pointing to garbage or something like that. Otherwise, what you have done is not wrong. I tried similar small program and it worked which is attached.

This may not be the recommended way to synchronize between modules A and B if that is the intent. Better way may be to have a signal connected between the two i.e. A sc_out port and B sc_in port, and A writing to out port generating event, and B's method sensitive to its in port. Suggestion may not be correct or too trivial as I do not know the context in which event is generated and who generates it. 

Definitely, in your case, you need to have the A_ptr, pointer to A module, being maintained in B module,  which can be done away with if you use signals and ports for inter-process communication.

Regards,

Suresh

Hi,

I am getting a construction time error because I have made a module's method sensitive to an event from other module. Why is this incorrect?
E.g.

SC_MODULE(A)
{
   public:
   ....
   sc_event a_event;
   ....
};

SC_MODULE(B)
{
   public:
   void method_b();
   SC_METHOD(method_b);
   sensitive << A_ptr->a_event;  ///I get an exception here
   ...
};

I just don't understand why is the above incorrect. Any help is appreciated!

Thanks,
Sundeep.
