$fwrite : Argument 1 is an unknown file descriptor

[Gayathrirani]

I have encountered the following error while executing the below mentioned code
$fwrite : Argument 1 is an unknown file descriptor
I have tried to store the computed values in two separate text files..In the following code the values of ra1,ra2,...ra16,ia1,ia2...ia16,hr1,hr2,...hr16,hi1,hi2,..hi16 are declared as wires and assigned constant values (that I have not mentioned here)...The code got compiled without any error..But on simulating..I get
$fwrite : Argument 1 is an unknown file descriptor..and the values in the text files are
realout.txt
x01111110xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
x10000000xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
imout.txt
x01111110xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
110000000xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

At the end of the alway bkock you close the file. So the file descriptor no longer exists. Make perfect sense to me.

 

[ads-ee]

You'll probably want a fix for this...
move the close statements to the initial block where you open the files:

open(...);
#delay_till_end_of_simulation;
close(...);

Or add an always block that detects the end of the simulation run and closes the files.
