Waveform

Description

Close the current, or specified wave configuration.

In the AMD Vivado™ simulator GUI, you can work with a waveform to analyze your design and debug your code. A wave configuration object displays with top-level HDL objects, and can be further populated using commands like add_wave and add_wave_divider. A new wave configuration object can be created in the current simulation with the create_wave_config command.

Any changes made to a wave configuration object can be saved to a Wave Config file with the save_wave_config command. You can open a saved Wave Config file with the open_wave_config command.

Arguments

-force - (Optional) Forces the closing of the Wave Config file, even if changes would be lost. The default behavior is to return an error if unsaved changes would be lost.

-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.

<wcfgobj> - (Optional) Specify a Wave Config object to close. The default is to close the current Wave Config file as returned by the current_wave_config command.

Note: The wave configuration must be specified as an object using the get_wave_configs command.

Examples

The following example closes all Wave Config files associated with the current simulation:
