Cannot compile AHDLCMI module library

[Teeeravis]

Hi all

I am having a hard time running a simulation that includes a mimcap
that has an ahdl description.
I can just replace the cap with one from analog lib but it would be
nice to run simulations on schematics that are lvs clean.

I am using mmsim7.2 and running on ubuntu 10 (i know, not supported).
It cant compile an ahdlcmi module library
When i check the ahdl.out file, i see it is choking on a -h option.
Is it choking on the -h option? What library am i missing? I am just
assuming that i am missing a library.

it could be any number of things

has anyone had this problem before?

it is pretty similar to this issue, but no solution was posted here. I
tried downloading glibc-dev but apt doesnt recognize it.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.





I've attached the spectre simulation output and the ahdlcmi.out

Whilst it's not supported on Ubuntu, I think talking to Cadence Customer Support
would be wise. Maybe if you tarred up the ahdlcmi directory so that somebody can
take a look at it, we might be able to find the problem.

I couldn't see this reported anywhere, but I may not have searched well enough
for it.

Best Regards,

Andrew.

Which guess: /bin/sh from Ubuntu don't support the -h option (which isn't
supported by POSIX sh but is supported by a lot of the variants; the
underlying Debian has make quite an effort to support any bourne shell as
/bin/sh and I'd not be surprised that the default one is the more
restrictive they have). Try at the command line

/bin/sh -h

to confirm. Then find a shell which support it by trying:

/bin/ksh -h
/bin/zsh -h
/bin/bash -h

and finally ask your sysadmin to make /bin/sh it point to it (Debian -- and
thus Ubuntu -- has a generic alternative mechanism for that, your sysadmin
should know it).

[Teeeravis]

Thank you both for the responses.

/bin/sh -h is not supported default at the shell.
/bin/bash -h does support this option
/bin/dash -h is illegal

it looks like the default option for /bin/sh is the dash shell in
ubuntu, i see a lot of articles complaining about /bin/sh defaulting
to dash

http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/2225/
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/313403

I am the sysadmin for this machine which i great because i can change
anything but unfortunately I dont know how to do this.
I can talk to the sysadmin at school to see how to resolve this.

If I cant get this resolved ill submit it to cust. support.


if you know how to make /bin/sh default to a bash shell please let me
know.
