Synopsis

Overloaded function for converting values of various types to string values.

Description

These functions return string values in a hexadecimal format. A prefix such as "0x" is not prepended.

In the case of a byte_vector_t, val(0) appears as the leftmost two digits of the returned string, assuming that val(0) has an ascending range.

In the case of a std_logic_vector, val is left-padded to a multiple of 4 elements before being converted to a hexadecimal string. Element 1 of the result string corresponds to the rightmost 4 bits of val. For example, "100101" becomes "25".
