Error while using 'asiAddAnalysis' function

Parameswaran

 I wrote the following SKILL code in "XYZ.il"

procedure(xyz() asiAddAnalysis( 'analog

?name 'XYZ ?

prompt "XYZ" ?fieldList list( asiCreateAnalysisField( ?name 'from ?prompt "from" ?value "0" ?row 1 ?column 1 )

asiCreateAnalysisField( ?name 'to ?prompt "to" ?row 1 ?column 2) asiCreateAnalysisField( ?name 'by ?prompt "by" ?row 1 ?column 3) ) ?optionList list( asiCreateAnalysisOption( ?name 'XYZ1 ?value "1e-4" ) asiCreateAnalysisOption( ?name 'XYZ2 ?value "1e-6" ) ) ) )

 

 

when I load and run the procedure 'xyz()' from CIW window i get the fllowing error :

*Error* (Default-reader-method) generic:asiGetName class:symbol

when i run 'xyz()' from skill prompt i get :

*Error* eval: undefined function - asiAddAnalysis

 

 The CDS log says that analog.cxt and oasis.cxt did get loaded.

    What are you trying to achieve? Adding an analysis doesn't make a whole lot of sense unless you're developing the integration of a new simulator, and that's something that you should do with Cadence's help - because there's an extra integrators guide for that. Whilst this function is documented, you're calling it with the incorrect arguments - the first argument should be a tool, not a symbol, for a start.

    And calling it from the skill prompt (do you mean running the "skill" executable?) makes no sense because the "skill" executable has no applications (such as ADE) integrated). The CIW is failing because you passed the wrong arguments...

    Regards,

    Andrew.
