- Add in your <.cshrc.local> file the following definition:
setenv MGC_HOME /s/mentor
and add the directory /s/mentor/bin in your `path'.
- Create a directory called mgc in your home directory.
- Copy the following file in your mgc directory:
cp ~dovrolis/public/mgc_location_map ~/mgc
- Edit the last line of your mgc_location_map file so that it points
to your mgc directory. For example, if your account name is `smith', the last
two lines should be:
$PROJ_PARTS_smith
(the full path of your mgc directory)
- Create a directory called startup in your mgc directory.
- Copy the following file in your startup directory:
$MGC_HOME/mgc_hep/custom_startup/icgraph.startup
- Note to CAE users: The following tutorials apply only to the usage of Mentor
tools at the SUN workstations of the instructional labs of the CS department.
If you also have a CAE account and you would like to
use these tools at CAE keep in mind that there may be differences in the
installation of the software. Also, CAE does not have to offer
support for tools such as IC Station in this semester. If some students
are still interested to work from CAE, they should contact the TA for
some additional instructions.
- VERY IMPORTANT NOTE: Do not ever copy, rename, move, or delete Mentor files
through the command line. Perform such operations using Design Manager (see Tutorial-1).
The Mentor tools maintain a hierarchical database of your designs, and direct manipulation
of the files of this database with Unix commands can make your designs unreadable.
