asiAddSimOption question

polo
Hey, Does any one have experience with using the asiAddSimOption method. More precisely, I would like to use the ?editable field. My understanding is that each time the user click in the simulator option, the expression is evaluated. It the evaluated expression is true, then the sim option is enable. If the evaluated expression is false, then the sim option is disable. The Cadence doc write: ?editable s_editable I have no idea how to write in SKILL the s_editable. Any help will be appreciated.

  • For a start, this is not really intended for end-user customisation - it's there for adding simulator integrations. It is possible to add a new entry, but you generally would need to modify the .cdsenv for the simulator you're using in <ICinstDir>/tools/dfII/etc/tools/<simName>/.cdsenv to add a new .cdsenv entry. For example:

     simulatorName.opts    MYOPT  string  ""       nil

    Then you'd do something like:

    asiAddSimOption(tool ?name 'VAOPTS ?type 'string ?sendMethod 'string ?value "" ?editable '(hiGetCurrentForm()->SPICE->value==t))

    In other words, it's either t or nil, or a quoted SKILL expression - in this case checking whether a boolean flag SPICE on the same form is true or not.
