In systemverilog how to provide commandline overrides for complex fields like associative array fields

Question

Lets say i have added a associative array string,string field to the factory through the macro `ovm_field_aa_string_string macro. Is there a way to configure it from command line like we do with simple int fields like follows:

./simv ... +ovm_set_config_int=scope,name,value

is there something like

./simv ... +ovm_set_config_aa_string_string=scope,name,key=val,key2=val2

No, you can only set int's and strings from the command line. I strongly discourge the use of any `uvm_field macros because of their inability to deal with complex times, the the poor simulation performance they impose.
