connectRules.il

The connectRules.il file contains the built-in connect rules that are displayed in the Select Connect Rules form.


ADE searches for the connectRules.il file in the following locations. If multiple connectRules.il files are located, their contents are concatenated and displayed in the Select Connect Rules form.

• All libraries defined in the cds.lib file
• Current work directory
• $HOME directory
• $CDS_HIER/share/cdssetup/ams/

Path specified by the connectRulesPath variable in the .cdsenv file. All Cadence-supplied connect rules are stored in the connectRules.il file in the

tools/affirma_ams/etc/connect_lib/connectLib

directory in your Cadence Incisive Unified Simulator (IUS) installation directory.

You can use the genConnRulesFile command to automatically compile your user-defined connect rules into a custom connectRules.il file.
