//  CLASS : sc_value_base

//  support for concatenation operations via a set of virtual methods. 
//  A general description of the methods appear with their default 
//  definitions in sc_object.cpp.

//  CLASS : sc_generic_base
//
//  Proxy class for user-defined value classes and other classes that 
//  are defined outside of SystemC. 
//  The class is utilized as a base class for the arbitrary class:
//
//       class my_class : public sc_generic_base<my_class>
//
//  The purpose of the class is to allow to_XXXX methods defined within that 
//  class so that assignments and casts from the arbitrary class to native 
//  SystemC types are possible. To interact correctly with the SystemC library 
//  the class derived from sc_generic_base must implement the following 
//  methods: 
//    (1) uint64 to_uint64() const
//    (2) int64  to_int64() const
//    (3) void to_sc_unsigned( sc_unsigned& ) const
//    (4) void to_sc_signed( sc_signed& ) const
