Simulator Configuration Guide for Synopsys Models

Simulator Configuration GuideChapter 2: Using VCS with Synopsys ModelsAIX:% setenv LIBPATH $LMC_HOME/lib/ibmrs.lib:$LIBPATH% setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH $LMC_HOME/lib/ibmrs.lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATHHP-UX 32-bit:% setenv SHLIB_PATH $LMC_HOME/lib/hp700.lib:$SHLIB_PATHSPARC64% setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH $LMC_HOME/lib/sparc64.lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATHHP64% setenv SHLIB_PATH $LMC_HOME/lib/hp64.lib:$SHLIB_PATH5. Set the VCS_HOME variable to the location of your VCS installation tree, as shownin the following example, and make sure that VCS is set up properly in yourenvironment:% setenv VCS_HOME VCS_install_path6. Set the VCS_SWIFT_NOTES variable to 1, as shown in the following example:% setenv VCS_SWIFT_NOTES 1VCS_SWIFT_NOTES enables the printf Processor Control Language (PCL)command. In addition, if this variable is not set, then no information, note, warning,or error messages from a SWIFT model will appear in the simulation transcriptwindow.Supporting 32-Bit Libraries on 64-Bit PlatformsIf you want to run 32-bit Synopsys models or tools on a 64-bit HP-UX or Solarisplatform, set the LMC_USE_32BIT environment variable to any value before invokingthe tool, as shown in the following example:% setenv LMC_USE_32BIT 1The LMC_USE_32BIT environmental variable is a “set/no-set” variable. That is, youcan set it to any value (even zero) to turn on 32-bit support on a 64-bit platform. If youdo not set it at all, the default condition is 32-bit models on 32-bit platforms, or 64-bitmodels on 64-bit platforms. You only set this environmental variable (to any value)when you are on a 64-bit platform using 32-bit models and simulators.October 6, 2003 Synopsys, Inc. 41
