Change Model Path in ADE L state by Skill

mkaragou

I have a set of simulation testbenches whit the according ADE states saved in the OA database (IC 6.1.3) which contain analysis statements, design variables, calculator expressions and so on.

 Now I would like to change the model path in all of these ADE states to point to a new release of simulation models but I would like to avoid  to open every ADE state manually and to type in the new model path by hand in the ADE L window.

Does a skill function exist which provides this functionality?

I had a look in sourclink and the skill documentation bud I did not find a solution yet.

  • There's not really any clean way of doing this apart from loading in ADE and fixing them. Would be a useful capability though, so you might want to contact customer support and request an enhancement.

    In the short term, one possibility is to change the default (using either envSetVal("spectre.envOpts" "modelFiles" 'string "/new/setup/paths/etc") or using the asiSetEnvOptionVal(asiGetTool('spectre) "modelFiles" list(...)) approach often used in PDKs), and then set this cdsenv:

    envSetVal("asimenv.loadstate" "modelSetup"  'boolean nil)

    What that will do is get the model setup to be turned off by default on the load state form, and so it will then pick up the default rather than what is stored in the state file. Not perfect, but may be a start...
