ADE XL simulations with SKILL scripting

frasheed

Hello,

I am writing script to automate simulations in ade xl view. All tests have been setup through GUI and they need to be run through SKILL. I am facing two problems, firts is after starting simulation (axlRunSimulation) the script loads the next command and dont wait for the simulation to finish. which function can be used to to pause the script until this simulation has finished?. Second problem is, even I am running the script from shell command line (ocean -replay my_script.ocn) , every time simulation log windows pops-up. Any solution how to stop this?. I need no window to be pop-up while I am running the simulation script. 

Thanks!

  • Hey, Thank you for replying. All simulation jobs are run on a local machine, I have tried teh function of jobId = ipcBeginProcess(sprintf(simId axlRunSimulation(?session axl_session))) but this doesnt seems to work because the run simulation commands returns the six number data type and sprintf requires string for the second input. my all jobs are asynchronous but will be run on local machine. Any help how to run simulation and obtain the the simId (simId will be used to explore the results after simulation ends) and also to pause the script until the simulation is finished or if you have any better solution then please share.
