Can I create a toolbar for the Skill IDE?

John Davis
I am using IC 6.1.5 and I would like to create a custom tool bar. One example would be to include running lint on the current file by just hitting a button As an example I have the following code, which I can call from the "Run Function" box on the edit toolbar, but it would be much nicer to have a custom toolbar with what ever functions I would like to call 
procedure(jdd_skillLintIDE()

        let((skillFileName tempFileName cellName )
            	skillFileName  =  _ilgGetFileName(-1)
                parsedFileName = parseString(skillFileName "/")
                parsedCellName = parseString(nth(length(parsedFileName) - 1 parsedFileName) ".")
                cellName = car(parsedCellName)
                viewName = cadr(parsedCellName)
                tempFileName = makeTempFileName(sprintf(nil "%s/%s_lint" "/tmp" cellName))
                when( member(viewName list( "il" "ils"))
                        sklint(?file skillFileName ?outputFile tempFileName)
                        view(tempFileName)
                        deleteFile(tempFileName)
                )
        )
)

  • Hi John

    Hope that the attached file can help you. I use it to invoke the lint form. I think you modify it to use your procedure. : )  You can also create a toolbar using the method in solution 11587454.

  • Hi John

    Sorry about the wrong info given, I just noticed that your question is about creating a toolbar in SKILL IDE. As of IC615-500-7, it is not possible to customize SKILL IDE toolbars. We do have an existing CCR (920095) that requests this functionality. Would you please file a service request with your local Cadence support to make another request for this feature? Thanks.
