Compile-Time Options
+cli+4
Same as above, plus enables force and release of registers.
Using these options also creates the Direct Access Interface
Directory, by default named simv.daidir, in the directory where
VCS creates the executable file.
You can include a module identifier (name) in this option to enable
a level of CLI commands for all instances of the module. If you
want to enable CLI commands in other modules, enter another
+cli option, for example:
vcs source.v +cli+dev1=4 +cli+dev2=4
This command line enables level four CLI commands in all
instances of modules dev1 and dev2.
+cliedit
In UNIX, enables tcsh-like CLI mode. This mode enables you to
use the GNU command line editing interface for entering CLI
commands. For example, with this mode, entering Control - p
displays the previous CLI command at the CLI prompt.
To use this option you first must download a zipped tar file from
the Synopsys FTP site, unzip it, extract this tar file, and set the
GNURL_HOME environment variable. You may want to install this
file at a location accessible to all users at your site. To do so:
1. Enter on a command line FTP FTP.synopsys.com
2. At the FTP Name prompt enter anonymous.
This enables a guest login.
3. Enter your E-mail address as your password.
4. Enter the FTP command cd TOOLS to move to the directory
that contains the tar file.
