Can I convert ocean to statement?

I'm afraid I don't understand what you're trying to do here. I suspect you're going about your problem in the wrong way, which may explain why I can't understand your question. Are you trying to conver the variable's value to a string, or the variable's name? Why?

You can plot with colour using:

win=newWindow()
awvPlotWaveform(win list(wave1 wave2) ?color list("y3" "y5"))

where y3, y5 etc correspond to your "y3" and "y5" layers in the tech file, and hence colours defined by the display.drf.

The analysis() function with no arguments will return the analyses currently defined. Note that if you run() a second time, it will re-use the last analysis() - unless you've done a simulator() call to reset the "session".

Hello Andrew,

Thank you for your reply.
The first question means that I sometimes need to convert the variable's name to string for some explaination or title work.

For second question, how to know the path of tech file? Moreover I do use command color list("y3" "y5") to plot curve. But In my test, from "y0" to "y10" I skip some color such as "blue" and "black". Why?

The statement I mentioned means the one in ADE. I want to get and name a statement file after an ocean run. It contains not only analysis but also output set and variable set etc.I can load it in ADE.

If you have the name of a variable stored somewhere, you can then manipulate it. For example:

A=23
theVar='A  ; use a quote (normal quote) to prevent evaluation and thus theVar contains the symbol A
symeval(theVar) => 23
printf("The variable name is %s\n" theVar)
set(theVar 56)
A => 56
theVarAsString=symbolToString(theVar) => "A"

To find out colours, look in Tools->Display Resource Manager->Edit . Then look for the y0 to y9 layers (probably need to use "All" to see all layers). This will then (when you select it) show you the colour, and also the name of the "packet" used. You can also find the packet names by dumping the tech file from Tools->Technology File Manager. Once you have the packet name, you can look it up in the display.drf file (this may be in your PDK, or you may have it somewhere else) which defines the mapping of packet name to colour/line style etc. The idea is that the tech file merely says what packet name is used for each layer-purpose-pair, and the display.drf defines the meaning of that packet - so each user could have different colours if they wanted without needing to modify the tech fle.

I don't really understand your last sentence. Do you mean an ADE "state" (i.e. what you save with Session->Save State)? If so, you cannot produce one of these from OCEAN (and I'm not sure why you would want to) - but this is based on a guess of what you really mean by your last sentence.

Hello Andrew,

Thank you. Now I know how to define color. But there is still some problems.
When I input "yn" in code, it gives me the color "yn-1" which defined in drf. For example,I input "y3" it displays "y2" color. Moreover I define "y8" blue in drf. But when I input "y9" it dislay gray.  Why?
Another problem is how to change default plot curve color and order. I mean if I plot five curves without defining color list.
It also give me five different color curve, but I don't like it. Can I change the default set?

I'm afraid you got my purpose. Why I want to do this is because some variables set is more complicate in ADE than in ocean.

Bobby.
