command "sevRun" or "sevRunEngine"

 Hi,

    i know that if you start analogArtist from schematic composer, the current schematic will be loaded as the current design in analogArtist, and I noticed that the analog-Artist use the command "sevRun" or "serRunEngine" to start a simulation,  and i am trying my own simulation method, like the "paramAnalysis", but  i found that when i put the sevRunEngine in my own procedure, it always prompts that "Need to select design before issuing this command" in CIW, and then i used the command "sevChooseDesign()", but this can't work well either. so here i want to make sure two points:

 1,  how to apply sevRun or sevRunEngine correctly, what's the necessary condition, such as a design?

 2,  for one thousand(this is a random value which depend on the input matrix) times parameter simulation, especially for only one parameter, what is the best way? i intend to use a loop in skill function "myOwnSim()", and in this function, i can calculate some equations. i think this way is more convenient than paramAnalysis

 welcome to any discussions,

Regards,

zfeng

    Zfeng,

    OK, the problem is twofold:

    1. You are calling sevNetlistAndRun with a symbol - so this means it is always referring to a session called 'isession, not the value of the isession variable. You want sevNetlistAndRun(isession)
    2. The isession variable is the wrong type of session. You need a "sev" session, not an "asi" session. So isession=sevSession(hiGetCurrentWindow()) would do it.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
