Description
Defines the current Value Change Dump (VCD) object, or returns the name of the current VCD object in the current simulation.
A VCD file must be opened and assigned to a VCD object using the open_vcd command in order for there to be a current VCD object.
This command returns the current VCD object.
Arguments
-quiet - (Optional) Execute the command quietly, returning no messages from the command. The command also returns TCL_OK regardless of any errors encountered during execution.
Note: Any errors encountered on the command-line, while launching the command, will be returned. Only errors occurring inside the command will be trapped.
-verbose - (Optional) Temporarily override any message limits and return all messages from this command.
Note: Message limits can be defined with the
set_msg_config command.<VCDObject> - (Optional) The name of the VCD object to set as the current object. If a <VCDObject> is not specified, the command returns the current VCD object of the active simulation.
