ADE-XL plot graphs by reading data from the database

netbug

Dear all,

I have an ADE-XL with several tests and I would like to plot specific waveforms of each test, which have been specified by the user. I was wondering if it is possible to access the database of each run and get the data.

A different question but related

When I select a given test on ADE-XL, let's say STB I get the following command in the log file: _axlTestFilterChanged(axlOutputsForm4->axlOutputsWidget4 "'(\"STB\")")

Cadence appends a number to the commands, in this case 4. This seems to be different from one ADE-XL session to another. So, when coding, how can I get this number ?

Best regards,

Pedro

  • Pedro,

    If it's scalar data you want, that's easy enough to do with axlReadHistoryResDB(). For waveforms, it's rather more complicated - see this thread: 

    Accessing ADEXL outputs from Ocean
    Hello, So I ran a parametric sweep with ADEXL and sets a history tag name. Then, later in Ocean I use axlReadHistoryResDB() to load the simulation results from that history, and use the ResDB data structure…

    You certainly wouldn't do it by trying to reconstruct the expressions you get in the CIW, with the unique numbers on the end - that's definitely the wrong way to do it. That's intended purely for log file replay reasons, not for code that is trying to automate tasks procedurally.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
