Specman e: How to print variable's address?

Is it possible to print a variable's address in Specman e, as it can be done in c: 

printf(" variable address = %d \n", &some_variable);

Thank you for your help

Solution

  • There is no way to do this. In e, there is no concept of pointers and addresses. Also, if this is a variable that persists across a garbage collection (for example, if it is a field or a TCM local variable), its physical address in memory can change, so in fact it is meaningless.
