Folks,
I need to read the rtl path of a register from a text file and access it.
This question boils down to, I have two variables like so...
string = "top.design.unit.myregister"
val = 'habcd;
I need to set myregister to 0xabcd.
I'd like to avoid writing a PLI if possible.
Can someone suggest a way?
Thanks,
-ravi |

There is no way to access a signal via a dynamic string name without using the PLI/VPI/DPI. If the text file is used for initialization, why not convert it to legal Verilog/SystemVerilog to begin with.

If the file only has the 1 signal name, then you can do this:
`include "file" = 'habcd ;
so it will simply expand..
But you probably are reading in a from a larger file...
