Struct Factory 

pub struct Factory;

The factory. Ambient, like the ConfigDb it is built on; every method is an associated function.

Implementations

impl Factory

pub fn create_by_name(name: &str) -> RustdvComp

Build a component from its registered string name (D71). Overridable, like anything from the factory. A name that is not registered is a testbench bug and panics; the file-driven form (ch39) will return a Result instead.

pub fn set_type_override<From, To>()

where From: Component + ComponentNode + Default + 'static, To: Component + ComponentNode + Default + 'static,

Override every From::create_comp() with a To, testbench-wide (UVM set_type_override_by_type). Compile-checked: To must be a component.

pub fn set_type_override_by_name(from: &str, to: &str)

The same, by string name (UVM set_type_override_by_name). Not compile-checked; an unregistered to panics at this call.

pub fn set_inst_override<From, To>(ctx: &RustdvCtx, path: &str)

where From: Component + ComponentNode + Default + 'static, To: Component + ComponentNode + Default + 'static,

Override a single instance, addressed by its path relative to ctx (UVM set_inst_override_by_type). The path is a string because it names a component elsewhere in the tree — not a duplicate of a field name (D75).

pub fn print()

Print the overrides in force (UVM uvm_factory().print()). It is the ConfigDb store, shown through the factory’s window (D68).
