Looking for a SKILL compiler

ThePhoenix

Hello, I'm looking for a good compiler (to compile the SKILL code before I enter it into Cadence) that enables Compiling and Running of
SKILL code. Anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks very much in advance.

    Hi,

    I think that you have already had your question answered in the IC Skill form but I think what you are looking for is a Skill development environment, Skill IDE. This is available fromn Cadence but at a cost.

    Most of us live with developing our code and running it in the Skill console to test it. Skill Lint is available. You can use this to check your code for syntax errors and poor variable assignment.

    Regards, Dave

    Yeah, I believe that the IDE is the right term, not compiler. Recently, I've found that simply creating a gedit file in Cadence is good enough for a SKILL IDE, because you can name it anything, and then immediately run it from the icfb window.  Is that what you are saying?  Thanks for the help.

    That's right. This is the Allegro Skill forum so we are talking about the Allegro Skill console here.
