|
Perform case-insensitive matching. (valid only when -regexp specified) |
[-filter]
|
Filter list with expression |
[-abbrev]
|
Get the largest ID for this abbrev |

Ignore command errors |

Suspend message limits during command execution |

Description
Gets a list of the currently defined methodology checks. This list includes the factory defined methodology checks for process and timing.
get_* commands return a container list of a single type of objects (e.g. cells, nets, pins, or ports). You can add new objects to the list (using lappend for instance), but you can only add the same type of object that is currently in the list. Adding a different type of object, or string, to the list is not permitted and will result in a Tcl error.
Arguments
-regexp - (Optional) Specifies that the search <patterns> are written as regular expressions. Both search <patterns> and -filter expressions must be written as regular expressions when this argument is used. Xilinx® regular expression Tcl commands are always anchored to the start of the search string. You can add ".*" to the beginning or end of a search string to widen the search to include a substring. See http://perldoc.perl.org/perlre.html for help with regular expression syntax.
regexp is not anchored, and works as a standard Tcl command. For more information refer to http://www.tcl.tk/man/tcl8.5/TclCmd/regexp.htm.
-nocase - (Optional) Perform case-insensitive matching when a pattern has been specified. This argument applies to the use of -regexp only.
-filter <args> - (Optional) Filter the results list with the specified expression. The -filter argument filters the list of methodology checks returned by get_methodology_checks based on property values on the rule checks. You can find the properties on an object with the report_property or list_property commands.
get_pins * -filter {DIRECTION == IN && NAME !~ "*RESET*"}
bool) type properties can be directly evaluated in filter expressions as true or not true: -filter {IS_PRIMITIVE && !IS_LOC_FIXED}
-abbrev <arg> - (Optional) Get the methodology checks associated with the specified name or abbreviation.
-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.
-verbose - (Optional) Temporarily override any message limits and return all messages from this command.
set_msg_config command.<patterns> - (Optional) Match methodology checks against the specified patterns. The default pattern is the wildcard '*' which gets all methodology checks.
