get list of analysis in a test of Assembler

kkdesbois

Hello,
Is there a function to get the list of available analysises available in a specific test of Assembler.

I know the function asiDisplayAnalysis that requires an asiSession as argument.

Subsidiary question : 
what is the difference between the mae and the axl functions? Are some of them redondant? Do we have to favor one vs the other?

  • maeGetEnabledAnalysis(testName) should do what you want. Although that's just the list of actual analyses used. If you want the list of available analyses, you'd do:

    sess=axlGetWindowSession()
    sevSess=axlGetToolSession(sess "testName")
    asiSess=sevEnvironment(sevSess)
    asiGetAnalysisNameList(asiSess)

    The general idea is that the mae functions are a higher-level, simpler to use set of functions and cover a lot of the maestro functionality. However, there occasionally needs to use the axl functions to access other things - and underneath you might need the OASIS "asi" functions too - see the example above.

    Thanks for the answer.

    It confirms what I'm currently doing to get the analysis list (except using asiGetSession(sevSess) instead of sevEnvironment(sevSess))

    It's often boring to navigate through the different sessions (fnx, sev, asi) and find the function to use according to the chosen session.

    For that, the mae functions are more easy to use as we just usually have to give the testName as argument (and optionally the fnx session)

    But there are not so many mae functions...
