Where I can find .simvisionrc file?

Hi ,

I want to source one .tcl file whenever I invoke simvision on my machine.

I came to know that it can be done by .simvisionrc file.

But I am not able to locate the .simvisionrc file.

Can you please show me the path to .simvisionrc file?

Or I can make one .simvisionrc file in my home folder?

 Please reply ASAP.

 

Thanks,

Chintan

    SimVision will look for a .simvisionrc file first in the current working directoy and if it cannot find one will look in your home directory.

    The .simvisionrc file can only contain SimVision commands which can be found in the SimVision Command Language Reference. If you want to source a TCL script to execute simulator commands, such as opening a database and probing signals, you will need to pass that script to the simulator command using the -i switch.

    Example:

    % irun -f run.f -i probe.tcl -gui
