How to create a final netlist from ADE-XL with global variables using Skill?

adeuser777

I am trying to create a netlist from ADE-XL through skill command. My intention is to create the same netlist which ADE-XL creates when user clicks "Run" button in ADE-XL.

 

I tried following options. But all of them don't take "Global Variables" in to account.

 

createFinalNetlist

asiFinalNetlist

asiExecuteFlowChart(o_session 'asiComposeSimInput)

 

Is there any other way to achieve this?

 

Thanks,
Ram

  •  Hi,

    I might have a similar need than Ram. I want to run simulations totally in batch as there is the need to run many designs in batch in parallel, so I want to start the netlisting and simulations for various designs in batch w/o bringing up the GUI.

    I can netlist but I don't get the Design Variables set. In ADE-XL I see "Global Variables" and "Parameters" but no "Design Variables".

    At the end of netlisting I get this message:

    Simulation design variables differ from those on the cellView,
    they have been saved in the file "/tmp/saved-design-variables".
    To save future changes, copy variables to cellView before exiting.

    That file contains empty strings for each variable.

    I can also list the parameters (?) with this command: asiGetDesignVarList( sessionId ) and they have the correct values. 

    I'm not sure about the differences between "Global Variiables", "Design Variables", and "Parameters"

    Can you point to the SR mentioned?

    Thanks,

    Joachim
