hi all,

I have doubts about ".synopsys_dc.setup" file. hope someone can help...!

1) when search path is given a path fpr example "

search_path = {} + search_path, what the + search_path mean ?
I mean why I need to include search_path = {"original path"} + search_path


2) About technology files :- I have ".db and .lib" but ".sdb" file is not there with me when I synthesizs my design it shows the symblos named as G-tech symbols.
does it mean its taking the symbols form Gtech library?

I hope my doubt is clear to understand

thanks in advance,

mirzaaux
 

set target_library "corelib_wc.db corelib_bc.db"
set link_library "* $target_library"

search path is where these files are present
have u used the above mentioned target library that's where ur actual synth takes place

Added after 1 minutes:

set target_library "corelib_wc.db corelib_bc.db"
set link_library "* $target_library"

search path is where these files are present like 2005.09 directory
have u used the above mentioned target library that's where ur actual synth takes place
if u haven't used it doesn't get the technology file and stops at gtech level
and ur .sdb file is not required if ur not willing to look at the symbols graphically.
