How to access the results dir of Explorer simulation/test

marcelpreda

Hi *,

I'm executing a transient analysis with sweep on a design variable.

At the end of the simulation it created the next directories

:-)>ls /.../results/maestro/ExplorerRun.0/
1/ 10/ 11/ 12/ 13/ 14/ 15/ 16/ 17/ 18/ 19/ 2/ 20/ 21/ 22/ 23/ 3/ 4/ 5/ 6/ 7/ 8/ 9/ psf/ sharedData/ wavedb/

I want to et from SKILL the root directory of the simulation results and to process with an external script all the spectre.out files.

Any idea how can I do that?

I've try the old ADE-L style

sessionId = asiGetCurrentSession()
asiGetResultsDir(sessionId)

but it returns not want I want. I get

/.../$libName/$cellNAme/$stateViewName/results/maestro/ExplorerRun.0/psf/$cellName
which is two levels below what I want.

I think that the respective information is available in some data structure, because when I do right-click on the History entry ExplorerRun.0 , like in the picture below, it opens a terminal exactly on the path that I'm interested of.

I did some trials with the axl*History and axl*Test functions, but no success.

Thank you,

Marcel

    Did you try to use the axlGetResultsLocation() function described in the ADE Skill Reference Manual? This function provides the path to your simulation data. Its single argument is the handle to the database. The example provided in the reference manual follows:

    data_sdb = axlGetMainSetupDB(axlGetWindowSession())
    axlGetResultsLocation( data_sdb )
    "myLib/myCell/adexl/results/data"

    Dear Marcel,

    Just to add to my suggestion and perhaps make it more relevant, if you know the specific database you are interested in retrieving the path to, for example, "Interactive.0", the following use of the command might be helpful:

    resultsLoc = (axlGetResultsLocation (axlGetHistoryEntry (axlGetMainSetupDB
    axlGetWindowSession() ) "Interactive.0" ) )
    "opamplib/ampTest/adexl/results/data"

    Although it doesn't really give you the path to the Interactive.0 history; it just tells you the root of the results directory when that history was performed, if saveDir wasn't set. Not enormously useful... (the documentation isn't great on this).

    Better still (if using Explorer and Assembler), you can use:

    rdb=maeReadResDB(?historyName "Interactive.18")
    foreach(test rdb->tests()
      printf("Point %d Corner %L Test %L resultsDir %L\n" test->pointID test->cornerName test->name test->resultsDir)
    )

    when then outputs something like this (by accessing other parts of the RDB you can find out parameters etc):

    Point 1 Corner "nominal" Test "TRAN" resultsDir "/export/home/andrewb/workshops/adexl_workshop/design/simulation/opamp090/full_diff_opamp/maestro/results/maestro/Interactive.18/1/TRAN"

    You can also use axlReadHistoryResDB() if using ADE XL.
