RTL compiler Verilog_out netlist

superman321

Im trying to get a verilog (structural) netlist of a synthesized, mapped design and I would like to have it in "positional" format rather than the deafult named format.

I have tried using the attribute "set_attribute write_vlog_port_association_style positional" which give me an error: 

[TUI-19] The object for this attribute is missing or invalid. [TUI-19] [set_attribute]
        : You must specify a 'instance' object type as the final (fourth) argument when setting the 'write_vlog_port_association_style'  attribute.

Any suggestion on how to use this attribute or any other attribute that may give me a structural "positional" format rather than the default "named" format?

     Hi Superman321,

     from RC command-line

    rc:/> get_attr -h write_vlog_port_association_style *

    Usage: get_attribute <string> [<object>+]

        <string>:
            attribute name
        [<object>+]:
            object of interest (must be unique)

        attribute category: write

        attribute name: write_vlog_port_association_style
              category: write (controls write output)
           object type: instance
           access type: read-write
             data type: string
         default value: default
                  help: Determines the style for writing out port connections of an instance. The style can be default(i.e. same as in the
                        user design input), positional or named.

    Note that the attribute you mention is applicable to instances hence you should be applying it to an instance. You should have something like

    set_attr  write_vlog_port_association_style positional  [find /  -instance <instance name>]
