Changing Design in ADE (and ADEXL)

BradW

I'm trying to copy a cell and all the views to a new cell and make edits from there.  After copying a cell I open my ADEXL (or ADE) test setup and the design still points to the old design name I copied this design from.  When I try to update the design to point to the newly copied name all the "Outputs Setup" (Outputs in ADE) are removed.

 Is there a way to update the design name without having it delete all the rest of the testbench setup?  Right now I'm having to play all sorts of games with the naming just to keep running the testbenches I've already setup.

 

Thanks

    When copying in the library manager, you can use the "Update References" checkbox (or something like that - I forget what it's called off the top of my head).

    For the second part, if you set this .cdsenv :

      asimenv retainStateSettings   cyclic  "yes"

    or in your .cdsinit use:

      envSetVal("asimenv" "retainStateSettings"   'cyclic  "yes")

    I have a CCR to make this the default rather than the historical mode which resets everything. Hopefully that will be happening before too long (it's been discussed recently).

    Regards,

    Andrew.
