 Old Releases (pre-Accellera)
The old versions of the OVL (Verilog April 2003, VHDL Oct 2002) are not supported by Accellera and are not currently available from its website. However, it is possible to use the latest Accellera Standard OVL library as long as you make the following changes:
  • Ensure the port name for assert_implication is consistent (old=antecendent_expr, new=antecedent_expr)
  • Ensure the `defines are consistent (e.g. old=ASSERT_INIT_MSG, new=OVL_INIT_MSG)
 Unsupported Assertions
The following X-checking OVL assertions were never part of the OVL library and have since been replaced.
