Examples

The following example shows how to get the handle of the current setup database and use it to get the list of all the global variables associated with that setup database.

s1 = axlGetWindowSession()
=> "session0"
x_mainSDB=axlGetMainSetupDB(s1)
=> 1001

axlGetVars(x_mainSDB)
=>(1862 
    ("IREF" "SIDDQ" "VDD" "VIN_CM"))

The following example shows how to get the list of variables associated with the given corner, C1.

s1 = axlGetWindowSession()
=> "session0"
x_mainSDB=axlGetMainSetupDB( s1 )
=> 1001
axlGetCorners(x_mainSDB)
=> (1003 
    ("C0_VDD_1.6_Temp" "C1_VDD_2.0_Temp" "C1_VDD_2.2_Temp" )
)
c1 = axlGetCorner(x_mainSDB "C0_VDD_1.6_Temp")
=> 1984

axlGetVars(c1)
=> (2157 
    ("temperature" "VDD")
)

The following example shows how to get the list of global variables that were used in a history checkpoint.

s1 = axlGetWindowSession()
=> "session0"

x_mainSDB=axlGetMainSetupDB( s1 )
=> 1001

h1 = axlGetHistoryCheckpoint( axlGetHistoryEntry(x_mainSDB "Interactive.2"))
=> 4745

axlGetVars(h1)
=> (4788 
    ("IREF" "VDD" "VIN_CM")
)
