Analog Artist (Want to trigger a SKILL function..

Hello,

I have Analog Artist running, I start a simulation (Spectre).
I have a SKILL source code file loaded.

This is what I want to happen:

Once the Spectre simulation is over I want to trigger a function in my
skill source code to get executed automatically.

Can anyone help me with that?

Hi Bob,

I don't believe there's a way of doing this with a public SKILL functions (I can
think of ways of doing it with private functions, but that's not going to help
you).

You can of course do this with OCEAN, as the run() function will by default wait
for the job to finish - or with distributed runs you can use the wait()
function, or you can run in blocking mode.

What are you trying to achieve here?

One trick you can do is to make the SKILL function one of your output
expressions (in the output pane), and so if you have the option to automatically
plot the outputs, it will be triggered at the end of the simulation ;-)

Andrew.
