writing into file using skill

RAGHU2634

Hi ,

I want  to  write manual data into a new/existing  file based on condition met in program. Is there any available command or script to do this ?

Thanks,

Raghu

    Raghu,

    targetFile = outfile(targetFileName "a")  ;"a"-append, "w"-overwrite
    fprintf(targetFile "%s" stringVariable)  ;or different variable type configuration
    close(targetFile)

    See the help for complete description of these functions.

    Hi Adam,

    Thanks for the response .

    I gone through the above functions.

    I tried the below exactly

    stopM=outfile("./stopM1" "w")

    fprintf(stopM "%s"  stopLayers)

    The command executed without errors but it written nothing into file. Please let mw know where I am making mistake

    Thanks,

    Hi,

    You have to close the file port. Try,

    close(stopM)

    alternatively - if you want to see the file's content before closing the file descriptor - you might as well flush the buffer:

    (drain stopM)

    Raghu,

    there should be no error. I don't know what type of data are contained in your "stopLayers".

    It's probably a list, so then you have to you "%L" formatting. Look up fprintf function in Cadence help.
