OCEAN write generic procedure to plot waveforms

The Setlaz

 Hi,

 

I'm trying to write a generic procedure to plot waveform that takes the plot macro parameters as procedure input arguments.

Basically, I want something like this :

procedure( my_procedure(  signal signal_name strip ...stuff... )

    plot( sprintf( "%s ?expr '("%s") ?strip "%d" " signal signal_name strip ) )

    ...stuff...

    hardCopy...stuff

);procedure

 

It seems like I cannot plot something out of a sprintf because sprintf does not return an object, right ?

Is there any way to get that working ?

 

Thanks,

Damien

     Hi Andrew,

     

    Alright. Does it mean that the plot() macro is kind of wrapper for awvPlotWaveform() function ?

    I will look at the documentation tomorrow - I only looked at OCEAN Refence and SKILL Language Reference and SKILL User's Guide maual. Thanks a lot for your help.

     

    Regards,

    Damien
