creatNetlist with ocean in a specific directory

Hello,

 

I would like to creat a netlis in a specific directory ‘myDir’

To do so I run

 

>ocean –nograph <mySrcipt.ocn

with mySrcipt.ocn :

 

simulator('spectre)

design("myLib" "myCell" "schematic")

envSetVal("asimenv.startup" "projectDir" `string "myDirFullPath")

envSetVal("asimenv.startup" "remoteDir" `string " myDirFullPath ")

createNetlist(?recreateAll t ?display nil)

exit()

 

 

The netlist is generated, but in ~/simulation/myCell/spectre/schematic/netlist.scs, even if I set "asimenv.startup" "projectDir

 

How to generate in myDirFullPath instead of ~/simulation ?

It is probably a matter of precedence, but I don’t find the solution.

 

Regards,


Fabrice

    Fabrice,

    The problem is you're setting it after starting the simulation session (i.e. after the simulator() call). Set it before the call to simulator(). It's a "startup" env var, so that's why you need to set it before startup.

    Regards,

    Andrew

    Thanks Andrew,

    Indeed setting the environnent before the starting the session is better.

    Regards,
