The 6th draft of SV-2012 was approved by IEEE last December, and it looks like support is creeping in to the vendor tools. I see that Questa seems to support the multiple inheritance offered with the new standard ("interface class" and "implements"). I anticipate that this is non-trivial to implement, but should be considered at some stage along with other SV-2012 additions (ref: http://events.dvcon.org/2012/proceedings/papers/04_3.pdf and http://blogs.mentor.com/verificationhorizons/blog/2012/12/05/ieee-approves-revised-systemverilog-standard/)

    Thanks for noting this, Vaughan. I agree with you on both counts -- the new features will be non-trivial to implement, and we need to get started...

    If you (or others reading this) have nominations for SV 2012 features that you plan to begin using and want SVE to support, please add them to this tracker item.

    Thanks!
