Setting Variables

You can set Tcl variables to help debug your design. In addition to user-defined variables, the simulator includes several predefined Tcl variables that you can use to control various simulator features. You can do any of the following:

• Set a variable or change the value of a variable using the built-in Tcl set command: xcelium> set abc 10 xcelium> set vlog_format %b

• Delete a variable using the unset command: xcelium> unset abc
• Display a list of predefined simulation variables and their current values using the help   -variables command: xcelium> help -variables

• Display a list of all currently set variables using the info vars command: xcelium> info vars

  This command does not display variable values.

You can put variable definitions in an input file and then execute the commands in this file using the -input option when you start the simulator. You can also execute these commands using the Tcl source command or choosing File - Source Command Script after invoking the simulator.
