Example

To generate the netlist using the configuration mylib.top:config with the settings specified in the .cdsenv file, use the following batch mode command:

runsv -lib mylib -cell top -view config -netlist -rundir top_run1 -cdsenv .cdsenv
By default, environment variables specified in file paths are expanded in the runSimulation file which is created by the runsv command. If you want the runSimulation file to be portable, enclose the file paths with the ' character so that the environment variables in the file paths are not expanded in the runSimulation file. The relative paths specified using the ~ or . characters are resolved with respect to the directory from which you run the runsv command.
