Compile-Time Options
-ntb_filext .ext
Specifies an OpenVera file name extension. You can specify
multiple file name extensions using the plus (+) character.
-ntb_incdir directory_path
Specifies the include directory path for OpenVera files. You can
specify multiple include directories using the plus (+) character.
-ntb_noshell
Tells VCS not to generate the shell file. Use this option when you
recompile a testbench.
-ntb_opts keyword_argument
The keyword arguments are as follows:
ansi
Preprocesses the OpenVera files in the ANSI mode. The default
preprocessing mode is the Kernighan and Ritchie mode of the
C language.
check
Reports errors, during compilation or simulation, when there is
an out-of-bound or illegal array access.
dep_check
Enables dependency analysis and incremental compilation.
Detects files with circular dependencies and issues an error
message when VCS cannot determine which file to compile
first.
no_file_by_file_pp
By default, VCS does file-by-file preprocessing on each input
file, feeding the concatenated result to the parser. This
argument disables this behavior.
