Modiftying Attributes of Nets created using $module->new_net

If I create a new net for a module using $module->new_net how can I modify stuff like the name, net_type, width, etc?

I tried doing

$newnet->name = "Name"

and similar things for the other parameters, but it keeps giving me:

Can't modify non-lvalue subroutine call at ./generator.pl line 89, <DATA> line 96.

Type errors, any ideas?

I think I figured it out. I created my net using:

 $newnet = $testbench->new_net(name=>$netname, width=>$netwidth, net_type=>$nettype)

Even so, it won't let me set the width even though the name and type gets set fine.

Width is just msb()-lsb()+1. Thus you need to set the ->lsb(#) and ->msb(#).

Thanks! Why doesn't setting the msb and lsb print the [#:#] when using $self->verilog_text?

Sorry, that code changed for SystemVerilog. You also need to set ->data_type("reg [3:0]").
