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 ;
}
