// CLASS: uvm_random_stimulus #(T)
//
// A general purpose unidirectional random stimulus class.
//
// The uvm_random_stimulus class generates streams of T transactions. These streams
// may be generated by the randomize method of T, or the randomize method of
// one of its subclasses.  The stream may go indefinitely, until terminated
// by a call to stop_stimulus_generation, or we may specify the maximum number
// of transactions to be generated.
//
// By using inheritance, we can add directed initialization or tidy up after
// random stimulus generation. Simply extend the class and define the run task,
// calling super.run() when you want to begin the random stimulus phase of
// simulation.
//
// While very useful in its own right, this component can also be used as a
// template for defining other stimulus generators, or it can be extended to
// add additional stimulus generation methods and to simplify test writing.
//
