Many of you already received communications about the move of the Cadence user community into cadence.com. And many of you have already joined, with over 4000 registrations in the first two weeks.

The new Cadence Community enhances the ability of Cadence users to connect and collaborate. In addition to moving the community into cadence.com -- enabling single sign-on for community, Sourcelink and Cadence events -- the new site is organized around nine technology segments, giving you easy access to product information, training, forums and blogs. Some of the new features include:
  • Ability to respond to posts via e-mail
  • Technology-specific blogs
  • Latest Web 2.0 social networking capabilities
  • Public profile options
  • Private messaging
  • Friends lists
Visit the new Cadence Community today at www.cadence.com/community and join the discussions!

Registration note: Due to the scope of the enhancements and the new SSO registration system, we were not able to migrate existing cdnusers.org member accounts. So new registrations are required, but this enables a broader set of functionality we think you'll enjoy.

Forum note: Under the guidance of forum moderators, we have taken the 20+ cdnusers.org forums and consolidated them into 11 forums on the new site. Posts have been brought over so you can leverage that posting history. CDNusers forums will be set to read only starting 7/30, and cdnusers.org will be redirected to the new community on 8/4.

Best regards,
Mike and Tom

I have a question on read_hdl on Encounter RTL compiler. It seems that it doesnt accept following code snippet

read_hdl -verilog {$rtl_list}

I created a run file to read in all the files for synthesis into the rtl_list. I can list all the elements in the rtl_list like

a.v
b.v
... z.v

Still the rtl compiler complains VLOGPT-650.

Thanks

Vinil,

Here is a reply from Cadence engineering:

***********
Hi Vinil,

There are two syntax issues with the read_hdl command you've posted:
1. -verilog is not an option to read_hdl. By default, read_hdl reads Verilog files, so no switch is necessary to specify Verilog input. Please do read_hdl -h to see the valid options
2. In TCL, surrounding a variable with {} means to not expand that variable its values. As a result, the read_hdl command is looking for a file called $rtl_list, not looking for the files specified in $rtl_list.

I think you will find that the following command will accomplish what you need:
read_hdl $rtl_list

Thank you for your post.
