can not generate functional view using nc-verilog

chqian

When I use cadence generate verilog model for top simulation

open a schematic , open  ade L, choose Launch ->Plugins->Simulation->NC-Verilog

the schematic had sub cells which have 'shematic view' ' functional view' and 'symbol view'

the functional view had rtl that I needed for simulation

but when I generate netlist ,the functional view can not be generated

how can I set in .simrc ,so that I can get what I want

Thanks

Mike

    If you're using IC615 or later, this is covered in this support.cadence.com article.

    Put simply, under Setup->Netlist in the Verilog environment for NC Verilog, there's a checkbox "Single Netlist File" - right hand side, half way down. If you check this, you get a single netlist with `include lines to include all the functional views (they're not pasted into the netlist though - it just refers to the original files in the functional views).

    This can also be enabled with:

    simVerilogGenerateSingleNetlistFile = 't

    (I think missing out the quote before the t would work too - I didn't check).

    If using older versions, the vlogifCompatibilityMode = "4.0" method will work, but you also need to look at all the files referenced in verilog.inpfiles too - it doesn't add the `include lines.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
