use of skill function "vhdlimport"

cpul111

Hi,

I am a beginner in SKILL, but anyway i like to write a simple script using the vhdlImport Skill function. Unfortunately i am failing with it. Could you provide a simple example ?

Kind Regards , Bernhard

    Hi Andrew,

    Thanks for your reply.

    Yes, I used -LANG as systemverilog. Below is the error it shows.

    I am using below.

    cdsTextTo5x -CDSLIB ./cds.lib -LANG systemverilog -LIB myLib -CELL myCell -VIEW functional -SYMBOL symbol verilog.sv

    =>

    ERROR (SHDB-11): Failed to parse the verilog module for design unit (myLib  myCell functional). Either there are compilation
    errors or cellview is not writable or verilog module does not exist in the file.

    ERROR (TI-7001): Cannot load the connectivity information for cellview 'myLib/myCell/functional' in text file 'verilog.sv'.

    I feel like, its a compiler error. But it doesn't print the exact error line.

    Is there any other way to import the systemverilog I can try?

    Regards,

    Amar

    Hi Amar,

    I suggest you add -LOG problem.log to the command line and then that log file should contain details of what the issue is. It's likely that any other way of importing the file (such as creating the view in Virtuoso and pasting the text in) would lead to the same problem.

    Andrew.

    Hi Andrew,

    The log file prints the details of the error.

    Looks like the verilog is using some package that is not found, though I have defined the packages.

    I will check on this. 

    Thank you, it helped to move forward.

    Regards,

    Amar
