Specman plusargs

Tudor Timi

Hi,

I would like to pass some parameters to my e testbench at run time. Does Specman have the nifty feature of plusargs (what SystemVerilog simulators have). A similar feature would also be welcome.

Thanks,

Tudor 

 

  •  Yes, starting from Incisive version 13.10, Specman has support for plusargs.

    sn_plusarg_exists(arg: string): bool
    - will return TRUE if arg is a plusarg on the command line

    sn_plusarg_value(arg: string): string
    - if there exists a plusarg 'arg' on the command line followed by an equal sign ('='), then the routine will return the string that follows the equal sign. Otherwise it will return an empty string

     

  • Thanks a lot, Stephen. I'll try it out when we migrate.
