Detecting the cadence version

swdesigner

Is there a simple way to detect which version one is running? I need to change some bindkeys based on whether my default waveform viewer will be AWV or VIVA..

 

Thanks

  •  Hi,

    As an alternative to what Andrew wrote, I've been using the following snippet of code:

    
  when(subVer = cadr(parseString(getVersion(t)))
    
    cond(
    
      (rexMatchp("IC" subVer)
    
        mainVer = substring(subVer 3 5)
    
      )
    
      (t
    
        mainVer = substring(subVer 1 7)
    
      )
    
    )
    
  ); when

    This should allow for the different format between IC5141 and IC61x, mainVer would be "5.10.41", "6.1.4", "6.1.5" etc.

    Hope this helps.

    Regards,

    Lawrence.
