Simulation

Description

Report a specific breakpoint object, or report all breakpoints in the current simulation. You must have an open simulation for this command to return anything.

A breakpoint is a user-determined stopping point in the source code used for debugging the design. When simulating a design with breakpoints, simulation of the design stops at each breakpoint to let you examine values and verify the design behavior.

This command returns the filename and line number of the specified breakpoints, or of all breakpoints in the current simulation, or returns an error if the command fails.

Arguments

-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.

<BreakPointObjs> - Specifies one or more breakpoint objects in the current simulation to report. The breakpoint object is returned by the add_bp command when the breakpoint is added to the simulation.

Examples

The following example reports all breakpoints in the current simulation:
report_bps
This example reports the specified breakpoints in the current simulation:
report_bps bp1 bp2 bp5
