TIME-DRIVEN

[hemingxiao-3]

Hello Professor Lin, I would like to know whether the Verilog netlist must be used as input to enable the time-driven mode.
Because I found that my Verilog cannot be parsed correctly. I tried to adjust my Verilog to adapt to the parser, but it still reports an error: some pins or nets cannot be found in the timer. I hope you can answer my doubts.

The timing analysis is done by OpenTimer, which requires to take Verilog as input. You can build OpenTimer separately and feed your Verilog to it to see whether your Verilog works.

Thanks, I'll try it.

Aborted (core dumped)
I have been troubled by this kind of problem, is this also because of OpenTimer?

Can you check the Verilog file or DEF file to see whether you have a net named 07519? If not, it would be hard to debug remotely. Could you share your case with us?

I'm not sure about this, maybe we can do it via email?

[limbo018]

Sure. You can email me the case.
