changing the name of waves.trn file

mkamal

Hi,

Does any one know how to change the name of waves.trn located in waves.shm directory during simulation ?

Is there a command-line option that can be passed to irun to do this ?

This is because every time I run a simulation using irun, the old waves.shm/waves.trn file is overwritten by the new one.

 Thank you

    Hi, Why not just use a tcl file to create your probes and database? As it's tcl you can also use environment variables in there if you like. e.g. set db_name "$env(BRUN_TEST_NAME)" database -open $db_name -shm probe -create tb_top -depth all -all -memories -functions -tasks -shm -database $db_name regards, Andy
