Scripting Library¶
Scripting Library¶
The goal of OSVVM’s scripting is to have “One Script to Run them All” - where all is any simulator.
Current supported simulators are
GHDL (Free Open Source simulator),
Aldec’s Active-HDL and Riviera-PRO,
Siemen’s ModelSim and QuestaSim,
Synopsys’ VCS, and
Cadence’s Xcelium.
OSVVM scripts are a TCL based API layer that provides a tool independent means to simulate (and perhaps in the future synthesize) your design. The API uses TCL procedures to create the abstraction layers – which is why they have the extension .pro.
The scripts are executable TCL, so the full power of TCL can be used when needed (such as is in osvvm.pro).
