Command for re-creating netlist

itos
itos over 10 years ago

Hi,


I am using Virtuoso, ADE L and and AMS together with the Simulink coupler. The coupler runs on a different computer and I execute the following command remotely to start the simulations (taken from the Simulink coupler tutorial):

echo "Matlab Current directory path is:"
pwd
setenv RUN_DIR /home/me/test/simulation/top/ams/config/netlist
cd $RUN_DIR
echo "irun will start, from this directory:"
pwd
echo "We launch runSimulation"
./runSimulation

However, it seems that this does not re-generate the netlist. Even worse, it does not throw an error (as ADE L does) when I change something but did not hit "Save & Check" or did not re-create the netlist.

What is the command to add before to recreate the netlist?

Also, based on which parameters would that happen? All settings (like design variables etc.) are stored in a certain cellview state.

Thanks!

    Dear itos,

    > Now, when I run the ocean script it still used my old netlist, no matter how often I would hit" Check and Save".

    Have you tried the solution recommended in Solution ID 1839795? A sample set of ocean commands is provided that define a means to create a netlist from the command line. From my understanding of your issue, it appears to do what you want - i.e., force the netlist to be re-created. I apologize  if you have seen this already!
