analog design environment

[mtech84]

hi all,

I am using ic5141 version of cadence, strange problem has ocurred,

when i simulate my analog design using tools->analog design environment, it takes a hell of 15mins to load the analog design environment window. its really annoying....

please help... is there any patch or bash script modification to make it load faster , i mean as normal....

thanks & regards

to delete cadence lock files

find ~ -name "*.cdslck" -exec rm -f {} \;

thanks for the reply....but it did not help me out.....

here is what i mean..

1. open any schematic from library manager.

2. go to tools menu -> click analog design environment.

3. the analog design environment window should open now, which takes around 15-20 mins to open..... which was not the case earlier. it use to open in 3-4 secs.

i knew the solution for this but i forgot over the time... because it was working fine..and i recollect that i did something in the .bashrc or added some small script file which solved the problem.

type ptree <pid> where <pid> is the process which stalls when you open ADE (probably icfb). you will see a list of processes related to <pid> and possibly narrow it down to which one is causing problems. how to solve the problem will depend on which process it is, i suppose.

May be it's a license pb? Try
% lmstat -a -c $CDS_LIC_FILE | grep ANALOG_DESIGN_ENVIRONMENT_
... to find out if there are free licenses for ADE

Hi mtech84,
Have you tried looking into your .simrc file ?
