Always appear

`uvm_info("id", "message 2", UVM_LOW)


`uvm_info("id", "message 3", UVM_MEDIUM)
`uvm_info("id", "message 4", UVM_HIGH)
`uvm_info("id", "message 5", UVM_FULL)

uvm_top.set_report_verbosity_level_hier(UVM_LOW);

Setting Actions

uvm_top.set_report_severity_action_hier(
UVM_INFO, UVM_NO_ACTION);
All info messages

Suppress messages

uvm_top.set_report_id_action_hier(
"ja", UVM_NO_ACTION);
Suppress all messages with ID = "ja"

Some Common Actions

UVM_NO_ACTION

Do nothing

UVM_DISPLAY

Send report to standard output (default)

UVM_LOG

Send report to a file

UVM_COUNT

Stop simulation when max count is reached (error)

UVM_EXIT

UVM_STOP

Redirecting Reports to a File

file_h = $fopen("my.log", "w");


uvm_top.set_report_default_file_hier(file_h);
uvm_top.set_report_severity_action_hier(
UVM_INFO, UVM_DISPLAY + UVM_LOG);

_hier method must be called after build_phase
