I want to make instance with array in SystemC

Question

I want to make instance with array in SystemC.

I want to write as follows:

module name = new module[10];

or

for(int i = 0; i < 10; i++){
    module name[i]("any names")
}

However, I did this, the compiler said:

error: no matching function for call to 'module::module()'

Please tell me how to make an instance with array.

In SystemC, you can use sc_vector instead of a plain C array, see e.g.

• https://standards.ieee.org/standard/1666-2011.html (Section 8.5)
• https://complex.offis.de/documents/doc_details/29-scvector-and-the-ieee-p1666-2011-systemc-standard.html

SC_MODULE(top)
{
  sc_vector<module> m; // e.g. class member

  SC_CTOR(top)
    : m("modules", 10) // constructor
  {}
};
