vcd2wlf

[M0delSim waveform format]

In addition to
1) modeltech's its own vsim viewer and
2) Undertow Waveform Viewer,
does there exist any tool/utility to do the wlf to vcd translation ?

Thanks in advance :eek:
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Modelsim can do .vcd to .wlf conversion through vcd2wlf
-----------------------------------------------------------------
ps:
.wlf: Wave log format file .......M0delsim waveform format
.vcd: Value change dump fie
-----------------------------------------------------------------
 

modelsim vcd

I also would be interested to find such a tool
I found some workarounds to generate VCD files
1. Adding $dumpfile() & $dumpvars() commands in the verilog code
2. Using Modelsim VCD Commands and tasks in modelsim
 

modelsim vcd dump

modelsim command
vcd file test.vcd
vcd add signal
run
vcd flush
 

wlf to vcd

Thanks for reply.
Of course, workaround is dump the VCD file,instead of the .wlf
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

But, I'm wondering if any tool can do the conversion ? (wlf -> vcd)

Then I can re-use the waveform/stimulus ?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Just as I mentioned in previous post,
www.model.com and www.veritools.com have thier way to
read both .wlf and .vcd files.
Furthermore, Modeltech provides the vcd2wlf utility,
so I think maybe there exists the wlf2vcd 8O
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

ANY OTHER IDEAS ?
 

wlf viewer

if your environment is still ok.
you can easily generate VCD file by modelsim
In my opinion, VCD file is much better than wlf
 

wlf commands

even in modelsim5.8 , there is no ultility to transfer wlf to vcd
 

using wlf modelsim as stimulus

have tried to do the conversion with cadences simvision?
try it might be there.
