Fairly new to systemc, I have been reading the documentation and I know that the sc_fix type has attributes for the word length and the integer length. Is it possible to pull these attributes? I can't seem to find mention of any function that would return, say, the number of bits a particular passed sc_fix variable would contain.
Any help or direction to relevant documentation would be appreciated.
Unless sc_fixed would be a better option? currently I am working on the assumptionthat sc_fixed is better to use as it is more flexible.
Use wl() and iwl() methods.
sc_fixed is derived from sc_fix, which itself is derived from sc_fxnum. You can read documentation for sc_fxnum to learn about basic features of all fixed-point types.
