iseInitSimWindow

iseInitSimWindow(
)
=> t / nil

Description

Initializes the simulator window.

First, the current window is set as the simulation window. Next, the menu for that window is set as the menu whose menu handle is specified by the iseSimulatorMenuHandle variable. No simulator menu will appear in the window unless this variable is set. Then, a check is performed to see if there is a netlist in the simulation run directory. If there is none, you are prompted to choose whether you want to netlist. A new netlist is generated and the simulator is invoked if you specify Yes. If you specify No, no netlist is generated, and the simulator is not invoked but the process remains inside the interactive simulation environment. This function returns nil if the simulator window is not accessible, if a simulator is running, or if the simulator is not invoked successfully; otherwise, this function returns t.
