Calibre interactive falis to export schematic netlist from Virtuoso 6.1.5

eggzhang

 Hi,

Currently I met with a problem during Calibre LVS. Calibre interactive falis to export schematic netlist from Virtuoso 6.1.5.

Then I tried to use 'File/Export/CDL' from Virtuoso. Again, it failed. The si.log message is similar to the failure information I got from Calibre LVS run. It is as follows:

======================

 Virtuoso Framework License (111) was checked out successfully. Total checkout time was 0.11s.
*Error* ilGetValue: nil argument, must be a symbol
******* Non-recoverable error (no top-level or error handler)
******* Exiting program ...
*WARNING* (icLic-3) Could not get license Virtuoso_Schematic_Editor_L

=======================

 What's the problem?

Thanks a lot!

 

Regards,

Dai

  • Dai,

    This is covered in Cadence Online Support Solution 11698172

    It's fixed in IC615 ISR1 (so the first hotfix) and is workaroundable by putting:

    license VSELicenseCheckoutOrder    string "XL,L"

    in your ~/.cdsenv file. Having this set with an envSetVal() in the .cdsinit doesn't help, because the "si" program used for CDL netlisting doesn't read the .cdsinit. The problem only occurs if you only have Schematic XL licenses (and no Schematic L licenses).

    Regards,

    Andrew.
