fastscan
Prerequisites: You must have a design in one of the required formats on which to
invoke. The valid formats are: EDDM, EDIF, TDL, Verilog, VHDL, GENIE
and SPICE.
Minimum Typing: This invocation command does not follow the conventional
minimum typing rule. The capitalized letters in the usage line indicate the only
alternative typing accepted for that switch.
Usage
$MGC_HOME/bin/fastscan [-FAlcon]
OR
$MGC_HOME/bin/fastscan {{{design_name {{-EDDM [-I | {-S root_name}]} |
-EDIF | -TDL | -VERILOG | -VHDL |-GENIE | -SPICE | -FLAT}} |
{-MODEL cell_name}} [-LIBrary library_name] [-SENsitive]

Description
You can invoke FastScan in two different ways. Using the first option, you enter
just the application name on the shell command line. Once the tool is invoked, a
dialog box prompts you for the required arguments ({design_name | file_name |
cell_name}, design format, and library). Browser buttons are provided for
navigating to the appropriate files. Once the design and library are loaded, the tool
is in Setup mode and ready for you to begin working on your design.
Using the second option requires you to enter all required arguments at the shell
command line. When the tool is finished invoking, the design and library are also
loaded. The tool is now in Setup mode and ready for you to begin working on
your design.
Note
Shell commands do not follow the minimum typing rule.
Capitalized letters indicate accepted abbreviations.
