Get the current fileset (any type) or set the current fileset (applicable to simulation filesets only)

Syntax

current_fileset [‑constrset] [‑simset] [‑quiet] [‑verbose] [<fileset>...]

Returns

current fileset (the current srcset by default)

Usage

Name Description
[-constrset] Get the current constraints fileset
[-simset] Get the current active simulation fileset
[-quiet] Ignore command errors
[-verbose] Suspend message limits during command execution
[<fileset>] Specify the simulation fileset to set as current (active); optional

Project

Description

Get the active source, constraint, or simulation fileset within the current project.

When used without any options, current_fileset sets and returns the sources_1 set as the active fileset.

This command can also be used to set the current simulation fileset.
Note: Use set_property CONSTRSET to define the active constraint set on a synthesis or implementation run.

Arguments

-constrset - (Optional) Return the currently active constraint set.

-simset - (Optional) Return or set the currently active simulation fileset.

-quiet - (Optional) Execute the command quietly, returning no messages from the command. The command also returns TCL_OK regardless of any errors encountered during execution.
Note: Any errors encountered on the command-line, while launching the command, will be returned. Only errors occurring inside the command will be trapped.
-verbose - (Optional) Temporarily override any message limits and return all messages from this command.
Note: Message limits can be defined with the set_msg_config command.

<fileset> - (Optional) The name of the simulation fileset to make active. This argument sets the active simulation fileset in projects with multiple filesets. When <fileset> is not specified, the sources_1 fileset is returned as the active fileset.

Examples

The following example returns the name of the currently active constraint fileset:
current_fileset -constrset
The following example sets sim_2 as the active simulation set:
current_fileset -simset sim_2
