How to delete/change test variable in Assembler

alexstepanov75

Hi,

I need to change test design variables in Assembler. (Update some variable values and delete others)

I didn't find way to update value of design variable or to delete specific variable.

The only option I found is to delete all variables like this:

sess=axlGetWindowSession()
sdb=axlGetMainSetupDB(sess)
sevSess=axlGetToolSession( sess testName)
asiSess=sevEnvironment( sevSess)
asiSetDesignVarList( asiSess nil)

And then needed variables can be added using axlPutVar()

Is it a better way to do this?

    If this is for Assembler, the best way is to use maeSetVar:

    maeSetVar("Cload" "200f" ?typeName "test" ?typeValue list("TRAN_AC")). ; the typeValue is the list of test names. Might also want to add ?session sess if it's not the current session.

    Unfortunately maeDeleteVar can't currently be used to delete a test/design variable - CCR 2481922 is asking for this (it's a fairly recent request from one of the product engineering team, so it would be a good idea to contact customer support and request a duplicate as that could have a similar use model to maeSetVar). To delete a test variable, you can do that with the axl APIs:

    test=axlGetTest(sdb "TRAN_AC")
    var=axlGetVar(test "data_rate")
    axlRemoveElement(var)
