Hi,
I migrated recenly from ModelSim to VCS for performance issues (ModelSim was sooo slow for gate-level simulation plus I always had to generate VCD or FSDB and then feed that to PrimeTime which takes a lot of time and disk space, wheras VCS directly generates the SAIF files I want).
The performance gain was pretty huge. However I think I can optimize more.
So, the CAD tools server where VCS is installed is too slow since a lot of people work on it (and the Operating System is too old also). Is it possible to compile "simv" statically on that machine for example? cz I have a more powerful machine elsewhere, but with no VCS license installed. So I figured out if I could compile simv statically in the old one, and run on the powerful one. I played with the generated makefiles a bit, but I didn't succeed. Apparently VCS generates a lot of dynamic libraries especially the ones in `simv.daidir`
When I added the gcc `-static` flag to VCS, the linking results in the following error:
Any additional ideas?
