Hello sir Ludovic, I had been expecting a reply regarding my last email-request for help on the .vst stuff. I'm still on the 1-bit adder design example on the alliance site. Question#1 : about the output layout of the halfadder, I did not get the same/exact output as Figure#4 and #5 (halfadder). Does that mean that the design is wrong? I copied the code etc, from the site. The figure I got is similar though but not the exact one as it is on the site. Is that ok? Question#2 : I'm on the fulladder part now. I have created the fulladder.vst file as instructed. I get an error (mbk error) when testing the structural description; as in using the instruction: "asimut -c fulladder". The error is regarding the o2_y component in the description. Here is the output. Pls review my path settings pasted below. Are they correct.The error-output comes after. bash-2.02$ set mbk_in_lo vst bash-2.02$ set mbk_out_lo vst bash-2.02$ set mbk_in_ph ap bash-2.02$ set mbk_out_ph ap bash-2.02$ set mbk_cata_lib=.:$alliance_top/cells/sclib bash-2.02$ asimut -c fulladder @ @@@@ @ @ @@@@@@@@@@ @ @ @@ @@@ @ @@ @ @@@ @@ @ @ @ @@ @ @@@ @@@ @@@ @@ @@@ @@@ @@@@ @@ @ @@ @@@@ @@@@ @@@ @@ @@ @@ @@ @@ @ @@ @@@@ @@ @@ @@ @@ @@ @@ @@ @ @@ @@@ @@ @@ @@ @@ @@ @@ @@ @@@@@@@ @ @@ @@ @@ @@ @@ @@ @@ @@ @ @@ @@ @@ @@ @@ @@ @@ @@ @@ @@ @ @@ @@@ @ @@ @@ @@ @@ @@ @@@ @@ @@@@ @@@@ @ @@@@ @@@@@@ @@@@ @@@ @@@ @@@@ @@ @@@@@@ A SIMUlation Tool Alliance CAD System 4.0.6, asimut v3.02 Copyright (c) 1991...1999-2001, ASIM/LIP6/UPMC E-mail support: alliance-support@asim.lip6.fr Paris, France, Europe, Earth, Solar system, Milky Way, ... initializing ... searching `fulladder` ... compiling `fulladder` (Structural) ... flattening the root figure ... *** mbk error *** can't open file : o2_y.vst bash-2.02$_ I dont know why it cant open the file (o2_y), anyway I am hoping you would kindly help me on this issue cause I've been stuck here for about 1 week already.
