specman question - how to refresh the logs ?

wintegra

Hi.

I have the next problem:

when the simulation is paused, the irun.log is not updated to the same time that the simulation stop in.

I guess that the log is updates every x time.

I also think that the problem is also that the data in the data browser is not updated.

how can I force refreshing the data and the log?

Thanks.

Kobi.

    I forgot to mention that I know that if I close the specman every thing is updated.

    But what to do when need the specman open.

    Hi Kobi,

    use the "-unbuffered" option for irun (http://sourcelink.cadence.com/docs/files/Release_Info/Docs/ncvlog/ncvlog8.2/simulating.html#1021243)

    Joerg.

     -UNbuffered

    Do not buffer output.

    This option forces output to bypass the file I/O buffer. This includes commands and statements that display information and that write information to log files, key files, and so on.

    The -unbuffered option is useful when you need simulation data to be displayed as soon as it is generated. Otherwise, the simulator waits for the buffer to fill and then outputs the data.

    The -unbuffered option imposes a significant performance penalty. Use -unbuffered only when you need output information to bypass the buffer.

    Example:

    % ncsim -unbuffered worklib.top:module
