How To Change Design Name in RTL Compiler

menime54

Hi,

I am using the following command to elaborate my design.  The design name is updated with the parameter names and values.  I do not want the design name to change. 

elaborate $DESIGN_NAME -parameters $cyDesign(ELAB_PARAMS)

I have tried to use the change_names command to fix this.  I have come up with a hack, but I need a more generic solution. 

I have tried using the following change_name options with no luck:

-replace_str : This needs other options and I couldn't get it to work.  I just want to put the original name with this command.  How do I use this option properly?  Can you post the code for using this option to change the design name.

-map {{"from" "to"}} : I tried putting the whole from and to names in here, but that doesn't work to fix the problem

My hack is below, but I just simply want to replace the design name and not do this weird hack.

change_names -design -max_length [expr [string length $DESIGN_NAME] + 2]

Please help!

Thanks,

Stephanie

    just do 'mv des1_param1_val1 des1' This is faster, cheaper, and cleaner. However, note, by default Genus will look for the parameterized name if instantiated as a parameterized module in a bottom up flow
