[myhdl-list] how to create records in MyHDL like those in VHDL

[bedros <be...@ya...>]

Jan,

I got a question for you. I've been playing with MyHDL
whenever I have extra time. Everything works fine for
me, but I need a way to combine many signals into one
record so I can pass it around.

I tried to create a new class with all my signals
instantiated and it worked fine, except I needed to
modify your source code to get the VCD waveforms. Even
though I used __str__ attribute; I still feel that
there should be a better way to do it. I'm new to both
MyHDL and Python.

My question is how to make a record of something
roughly like this (in vhdl)

type pkg_t is (data, address, command);

type my_record is record

     package_type   : pkg_t;
     load           : bit_vector(31 downto 0);
     valid          : boolean;

end record;

I can use enum for pkg_t statement, but how can I
create the record? should I use a function, list, or a
class?

Thanks,
