mti_AddQuitCB()

Adds a simulator exit callback.

Syntax

mti_AddQuitCB( func, param ) 

Returns

Nothing

Arguments

Name
Type
Description
func
mtiVoidFuncPtrT
A pointer to a function to be called when the simulator exits
param
void *
A parameter to be passed to the function; OPTIONAL - can be NULL

Description

mti_AddQuitCB() adds the specified function to the simulator exit callback list. The same function can be added multiple times, with possibly a different parameter each time. When the simulator exits, all callbacks in the list are called with their respective parameters.

When the "quit -sim" command is given to vsim, quit callbacks are not called because the simulator is not quitting completely. Instead, restart callbacks are called.

Example

FLI code

#include <stdlib.h>
#include <mti.h>

void quitCallback( void * param )
{
  mti_PrintFormatted( "Cleaning up %s for simulator exit ...\n",
                     (char *)param );
  free( param );
}

void initForeign(
  mtiRegionIdT       region,   /* The ID of the region in which this     */
                               /* foreign architecture is instantiated.  */
  char              *param,    /* The last part of the string in the     */
                               /* foreign attribute.                     */
  mtiInterfaceListT *generics, /* A list of generics for the foreign model.*/
  mtiInterfaceListT *ports     /* A list of ports for the foreign model.   */
)
{
  char * instance_info;

  instance_info = malloc( strlen(param) + 1 );
  strcpy( instance_info, param );
  mti_AddQuitCB( quitCallback, instance_info );
} 

HDL code

entity for_model is
end for_model;

architecture a of for_model is
  attribute foreign of a : architecture is
   "initForeign for_model.sl; for_model";
begin
end a;

entity top is
end top;

architecture a of top is

  signal s1 : bit := '0';

  component for_model is
  end component;

  for all : for_model use entity work.for_model(a);

begin

  i1 : for_model;

  s1 <= not s1 after 5 ns;

end a;
