Description

Currently as far as I can tell there is no good way of wrapping a system verilog module with the "BlackBox" mechanism. While it is in principle possible to write adapter modules that have plain verilog ports on one side and system verilog interfaces on the other, it would be desirable to be able to wrap system verilog modules directly.
