Usage
Name | Description |
---|---|
[-into]
|
the wave configuration, group, or virtual bus into which the new virtual bus will be inserted. |
[-at_wave]
|
inserts the new virtual bus into the specified wave object, or after the specified wave object if not a group or virtual bus |
[-after_wave]
|
inserts the new virtual bus after the specified wave object |
[-before_wave]
|
inserts the new virtual bus before the specified wave object |
[-reverse]
|
reverses the displayed bit order of the new virtual bus |
[-radix]
|
sets the displayed radix of the new virtual bus to the specified radix. Allowed values are: default, dec, bin, oct, hex, unsigned, ascii, smag |
[-color]
|
sets the displayed color of the new virtual bus to the specified color, which can be a standard color name or a string of the form #RRGGBB Default: default |
[-quiet]
|
Ignore command errors |
[-verbose]

Description
The add_wave_virtual_bus
command creates a new virtual bus of the specified <name>
. The command inserts the virtual bus into the wave configuration (WCFG) where specified, or by default at the bottom of the existing WCFG. It returns a vb###
for the newly-created virtual bus.
Arguments
-into
<wcfgGroupVbusObj> - (Optional) Specifies the wave configuration, group, or virtual bus into which the new virtual bus object(s) are inserted. If <wcfgGroupVbusObj> is a string instead of an object, it is treated as the name of a group in the current WCFG. If no such group is found, the tool searches the names of the virtual buses of the current WCFG. If still not found, the tool searches the names of all WCFG objects. If no -into
object is specified, the current wave configuration is assumed.
-at_wave
<waveObj> - (Optional) Adds a virtual bus object at a specified wave object. If <waveObj> is a string, it is treated as the display name of a wave object.
-after_wave
<waveObj> - (Optional) Adds a virtual bus object after a specified wave object. If <waveObj> is a string, it is treated as the display name of a wave object.
-before_wave
<waveObj> - (Optional) Adds a virtual bus object before a specified wave object. If <waveObj> is a string, it is treated as the display name of a wave object.
-reverse
- (Optional) Sets the IS_REVERSED
property of the new virtual bus object(s) to true
.
-radix <arg>
- (Optional) Sets the radix property of the new virtual bus object(s) to radix. Allowed values are: default
, dec
, bin
, oct
, hex
, unsigned
, ascii
, or smag
.
-color <arg>
- (Optional) Sets the color property of the new wave object(s) to the specified color, which can be a pre-defined color name or a color specified by a six-digit RGB format (RRGGBB).
-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.
<name>
- (Optional) Sets the DISPLAY_NAME
property of the new virtual bus object to <name>
.
Examples
Add a virtual bus of the name dout_tvalid
to the end of the current waveform configuration:
add_wave_virtual_bus dout_tvalid
