Netlist schematic view to SystemVerilog

PontusT

Hi!

I need help creating an ocean script to generate SystemVerilog modules from schematic views.


Today, I am using the Virtuoso Schematic Editor XL, I am creating SystemVerilog modules from schematic views. It is done by:

1. Launch -> Plugins -> Simulation -> SystemVerilog

Inside Virtuoso Verilog Environment for SystemVerilog Integration
2. Commands -> Initiialize design
3. Commands -> Generate Netlist

I tried to create an ocean script for this but I don't know how to select the design to generate the netlist. I have tried the following script.


(envSetVal "asimenv.startup" "projectDir" 'string "/home/ethopon/netlists/")
simulator( 'spectre )
design( "temp" "voltage_divider" "schematic")
vlogifNCInitDesign()
vlogifNCNetlist()
exit

Which I run using the command

ocean -replay createNetlist.il

But I get the error

*Error* eval: unbound variable - vtoolsIseGNCForm
*Error* eval: unbound variable - _vlogSimulator

It seems that I need to use graphic forms. But is there another easier way?
