Where to find reference on "asi" commands

CClauson

I hope this is a simple question--where do I find documentation for the "asi" family of commands, like asiGetOutputList() and asiGetSession()?

What I'm trying to do is, given an ADE Session object, scan through the outputs to see if there's any curve simulation data (like an array of x's and array of y's), and if so, extract that data for that output, along with other info for the output (i.e., like the name).  I'm looking at code that does similar things, and I'm guessing I'll probably find it wherever the "asi" commands are doc'ed.

Thanks in advance for any help.

    In the documentation system (either cdsdoc in IC5141 or cdnshelp in IC61) you can search. You can access the help by invoking one of these commands from the command line, or using the Help menu in any Virtuoso window (e.g. from the CIW).

    Also, the documentation is on Cadence Online Support.

    Or you could even grep the HTML files in the <ICinstDir>/doc dir if for some reason one of the above methods doesn't work for you (I can understand there might be if you're using IC5141 and running on an unsupported OS - although there's a solution on Cadence Online Support to fix your cdsdoc so that it works on RHEL5).

    I searched in cdnshelp (IC615) and see that this is in the Virtuoso Analog Design Environment L SKILL Reference which is the <ICinstDir>/doc/skartistref/skartistref.pdf

    Regards,

    Andrew.
