Logfile and virtual commands reference table
ModelSim Xilinx User’s Manual Multiple logfiles, datasets and virtuals 6-103
Virtual types
User-defined enumerated types may be defined in order to display signal bit
sequences as meaningful alphanumeric names. The virtual type is then used in a
type conversion expression to convert a signal to values of the new type. When the
converted signal is displayed in any of the windows, the value will be displayed
as the enumeration string corresponding to the value of the original signal.
Logfile and virtual commands reference table
The table below provides a brief description of the actions associated with logfile
and virtual commands. For complete details about command syntax, arguments
and usage, refer to the ModelSim Command Reference.
Command name Action
searchlog
(CR-88) searches one or more of the currently open logfiles for a
specified condition
virtual count
(CR-117) counts the number of explicitly declared virtuals that have
not been saved and that were not read in using a macro file
virtual define
(CR-118) prints the definition of the virtual signal or function in the
form of a command that can be used to re-create the object
virtual delete
(CR-119) removes the matching virtuals
virtual describe
(CR-120) prints a complete description of the data type of one or
more virtual signals
virtual expand
(CR-121) produces a list of all the non-virtual objects contained in
the virtual signal(s)
virtual function
(CR-122) creates a new signal that consists of logical operations on
existing signals and simulation time
virtual hide
(CR-126) sets a flag in the specified real or virtual signals so that the
signals do not appear in the Signals window
virtual log
(CR-127) causes the sim-mode dependent signals of the specified
virtual signals to be logged by the kernel
virtual nohide
(CR-129) resets the flag set by a virtual hide command
