Q:Is there a way to tell the elaborator to ignore certain parameters/generics so that the unit/module is not uniquified?
Specific parameters/generics of specific modules/units can be ignored during elaboration. Related APIs are:
vhdl_file::GetIgnoreGeneric() vhdl_file::SetIgnoreGeneric() vhdl_file::RemoveAllIgnoreGeneric()
veri_file::GetIgnoreParameter() veri_file::SetIgnoreParameter() veri_file::RemoveAllIgnoreParameter()
Below is an example as how to ignore all parameters in a library:
veri_file::AnalyzeMultipleFiles(veri_files, veri_file::SYSTEM_VERILOG, "work", veri_file::MFCU); /*** Go through library "work" in the parsetree, find all parameters, and set "ignored" on all of them. Or you can select the paremeters to ignore ***/ MapIter mi; VeriModule *module ; VeriLibrary *work_lib = veri_file::GetLibrary("work", 1); FOREACH_VERILOG_MODULE_IN_LIBRARY (work_lib, mi, module) { // do this for each module if (!module) continue; Array *parameters = module->GetParameters(); // collect all parameters if (!parameters) continue; unsigned i; VeriIdDef *param_id; FOREACH_ARRAY_ITEM(parameters, i, param_id) { // do this for each parameter of the module if (!param_id) continue; veri_file::SetIgnoreParameter(work_lib->GetName(), module->Name(), param_id->Name()); } } if (!veri_file::Elaborate("top", "work", 0)) { return 1 ; }
