The main file in this project is custom_report_server.sv. The rest of the files are from the examples/simple/hello_world example of UVM 1.2 distribution.

A custom UVM report server with better looking UVM message format, indentation and colorization to highlight warnings and errors.

Note about running with Cadence Xcelium

While the below instructions and screen captures are based on Synopsys VCS simulation, the same work using Cadence Incisive too; just replace comp, run and clean targets in the make command with nccomp, ncrun and ncclean respectively.

Instructions to run with UVM 1.2 (default) and Synopsys VCS

• Download UVM 1.2 source code.
• Extract it and cd to uvm-1.2/examples/simple/ directory
• Do git clone https://github.com/kaushalmodi/custom_uvm_report_server.git
• Ensure that vcs is available in the shell environment $PATH
• cd to uvm-1.2/examples/simple/custom_uvm_report_server/

• Download UVM 1.1d source code.
• Extract the uvm-1.1d/ directory from it in the same parent directory in which you extracted the uvm1.2/ directory.
• cd to uvm-1.2/examples/simple/custom_uvm_report_server/ (Yes, in the ~uvm-1.2/~ dir, it is not a typo.)
