Defining a VerilogA function in C-code referring to several shared libraries

Herge

The mmsim_genplugin script allows to compile a simple C-code function so that it can be made available in VerilogA using an import declaration.The "Cadence Verilog-A Language Reference" explains how to do this for a simple function that relies on standard C libraries.

What should I do to compile a function that uses "special" libraries that require -D<flags> -I <include_dir> -L <library_dir> and -l<my_lib>  options to compile with gcc ?  Can these arguments be added to the mmsim_genplugin command-line ?

  • The question in fact goes also beyond the compilation : how can I tell SPECTRE that it should load my special libraries ?

    Just add them on the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable ? Or is there a special "option" on the ahdl_include command in SPECTRE ?
