ADEXL: Post-Processing Ocean Scripts - Results Access

Hi,

 

I would like to call an ocean script I have that in turn calls an Octave (Matlab alternative) script.
I’d like my ADEXL corner simulations to automatically launch this ocean script, post process
each individual corner, and then read back in the text file that’s output by Octave.
 
I’ve managed to launch a simple Ocean script by adding it to my outputs in my ADEXL session,
but I’m not sure how to access the results database. The axlCurrentResultsPath variable does not appear
to be set. Also, axlGetMainSetupDB requires a “session name”, which to me seems will change each
time I run a new batch of corners.
 

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
 
Best regards,

Ronan

    Hi Andrew,

     

    Thanks for the swift reply, and sorry for not being so swift myself.

     

    In the absence of time, I have gone back to command our command-line-based APS simulation method.

    I use octave to perform pole-zero AC fitting, and also DC-curve-fitting  to my APS sim output.

    We do indeed write to / read from waveform files.

     

    Is there any good curve-fitting tool I can use within Cadence? My colleague tried, but got segmentation errors.

     

    When I get time I will try  openResults() and ipcBeginProcess()).

     

    Thanks,

    Ronan
