Hi, > Linux CAD package; > > When we run "genlib" with the ADDACCU sample you have given in the tutorial it is generating *.al files. But from your documentation we understood that GENLIB supposed to generate *.VST files. What could be the problem? No problems both format are used. set MBK_OUT_LO env variable to al or vst. See man MBK_OUT_LO. al and vst are 2 different file formats that represent netlists. al format is more complete. See man al, man vst. > Windows CAD tool: > > We have loaded your package on WINDOWS 98 platform. We have done the necessary changes you have recommended on CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT files. But when we run ALIANCE CONSOLE from PROGRAM menu it goes to DOS prompt and says "FILE NOT FOUND". We have aslo checked the pah for alc_env.bat which is correct. This is a bug in alc_env.bat : there is an email adress in in the header surrounded by '<' '>' and the REM statment in front of the line does not its job... certainly a Micro$oft feature...Please remove this line and evrything should be OK. > > We have also ckecked the EXE programs in cygwin directory in which GENLIB.exe is not installed. This is because genlib is a shell script not an executable. You'll find "genlib" in the bin directory. To use it type sh genlib [args ...] at the windows console command prompt or genlib [args ...] at the cygwin console sh command prompt It is certainly a better idea to use sh shell instead of windows command.com or cmd.exe > We would like to know whwther GENLIB.EXE is not needed for > windows design flow. We also would like to know the WINDOWS > design flow for a given design. No, genlib is needed... This is the exact same design flow as under Unix! -- Regards.
