I have to automate the simulation, testing and verification of results in Modelsim (in Linux) without GUI. For that, I have to open the project, then run the script file(.do) and store the results in a list file. The mydofile.do contains following commands. add list /PATH/signal_a run 1000ps -all write list -window List result.lst
I am running the following command
Open the simulation project using vsim and time in picoseconds. "vsim" invokes the simulator. mydofile.do is a script file that configures and runs the simulation vsim -batch -t ps abc.abc_demo & -do mydofile.do
The simulation project opens, loads the design and executes the .do file successfully. However, at the end of the simulation, I get the following error Error: write list not supported
I have also tried using console mode as well with the following command vsim -c -t ps abc.abc_demo & -do mydofile.do But that results in "Error: No list window. (nothing logged?)"
If I run the simulation in GUI mode (vsim -t ps abc.abc_demo & -do mydofile.do), things work fine and result.lst file is stored with updated values.
How to achieve the required execution without opening GUI?
