R – In Specman, how can I tell if a reference to a unit has the do-not-generate modifier in front of it

edaspecmanverification

In Specman, how can I tell if a reference to a unit has the do-not-generate modifier, '!', at the reference's definition?

e.g.

unit foo_u {
}; 

extend sys {
   foo : foo_u is instance;
   foo_ptr_generated : foo_u;
   keep foo_ptr_generated == foo;
   !foo_ptr_notgenerated : foo_u;
   connect_pointers() is also {
      foo_ptr_notgenerated = foo;
   };
};

Without inspecting the code or relying on a naming convention, how can I tell that foo_ptr_generated went through Specman's constraint solver and foo_ptr_notgenerated was procedurally set?

Best Solution

Finally figured this out. This code will determine which references are generated and which aren't in Specman 6 via the reflection interface:

<'
type my_t : [ A,B,C];
unit foo_u {
   sub_typiness : my_t;
   other_sub_typiness : my_t;


   when A'sub_typiness foo_u {
      !bar_ptr : bar_u;
   };

   when B'other_sub_typiness foo_u {
      in_b_sub_type : int;
   };

   when A'sub_typiness B'other_sub_typiness foo_u {
      in_a_b_subtype :int;
   };
   b : bah_u is instance;
};


unit bar_u {
   sub_typiness : my_t;
   other_sub_typiness :my_t;

   when B'sub_typiness bar_u {
      !foo_ptr : foo_u;
   };
   when C'other_sub_typiness bar_u {
      inc_sub_type : int;
   };

   when A'other_sub_typiness bar_u {
      !you_shouldnt_see_this_field : bah_u;
   };

   when B'sub_typiness C'other_sub_typiness bar_u{
      in_b_c_subtype :int;
   };
   !b : bah_u;
   b2 : bah_u;
};

unit bah_u {

};
