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.

  • Apologies for the delay - overlooked this and got rather busy with other things.

    Anyway, I just tried this in IC5141 (I happened to be using the latest ISR, but I don't think that should matter). I did this:

    tool=asiGetTool('spectre)
    asiAddSimOption(tool ?name 'MYOPTS ?type 'string ?sendMethod 'string ?value "" ?editable '(hiGetCurrentForm()->dochecklimit->value==list(t nil)))

    and in the <instdir>/tools/dfII/etc/tools/spectre/.cdsenv file I added:

    spectre.opts    MYOPTS  string  ""      nil

    For spectre, dochecklimit is a toggle field, which can be set to "yes" or "no". If I set it to "yes", then the MYOPTS field becomes editable, and if I set it to anything else, it gets greyed out (and it's greyed out by default).

    So it appears to work.

    If it doesn't work for you, I'd suggest you'd first check in the latest hotfix, and if it still doesn't work, contact Cadence Customer Support with the details of how to reproduce the problem.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
