skill commands

archive

Hi I would like to swipe few commands in order to load Cadence

1. include /PDK/CRN65LP/cds.lib

2. setenv CDS_Netlisting_Mode "Analog"

 

Do I have to swipe them into the CIW window or in the linux terminal?

 

Thanks

 

Nik

  • Yassou Nik,

    The "include" statement should be able to go in the ./cds.lib file, the syntax looks correct - you can use either "INCLUDE" or "SOFTINCLUDE" and these keywords are case-insensitive.  In SKILL the ddSetForcedLib() command allows a different directory's cds.lib file to be used, other than the default of the current directory: ./cds.lib file.  The "setenv" statement is a Unix (csh) command, so it can either by typed in the terminal, or automatically set in your environment by including it in a .login or .cshrc file (for example, other shells may use other approaches, such as .profile)

    I hope this answers your questions.

    Regards,

    Lawrence.

    What is the difference between INCLUDE and SOFTINCLUDE?

  • For the "include" statement, the file must exist or an error will be given if the file is not found, whereas the "softinclude" does not complain if the file is not found - think of it as "load this cds.lib syntax file if it exists".

    Hope it answers your question?

    Lawrence.
