Sequential execution of skill command in CIW window

anandmohan

HI ,

Is there anyway to execute skill command on a sequential manner?
Like while one command is getting  executed, virtuoso will wait. Once execution is completed it will move on to command.
can  ipcBeginprocess/ipcwait be used for this purpose?



Regards
Anand

    SKILL will normally execute sequentially anyway (it's not multi-threaded), so I don't really understand what problem you're trying to solve?

    HI Andrew,

    I have a code like this

    procedure(pex_list()
    mgc_rve_load_setup_file("calibreview_1")
    mgc_rve_load_setup_file("calibreview_2")

    mgc_rve_load_setup_file("calibreview_3")

    mgc_rve_load_setup_file("calibreview_4")

    )

    if i am loading this skill code in CIW window and invoke the function  'pex_list()'. Is the execution is like ' mgc_rve_load_setup_file("calibreview_1") ' will execute first completely and then only execution of ' mgc_rve_load_setup_file("calibreview_2") ' starts?

    Hi Anand,

    The problem is that this function comes from Mentor, not Cadence. It interacts with their external RVE tool and I have no way of knowing whether that acts in a blocking way or not - it may be that the mgc_rve_load_setup_file returns immediately after sending the message to the RVE tool and so it doesn't do what you want.

    You'd need to consult with Mentor to find the answer to this question.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
