VHDL Simili -Sonata

Hi All,
For my VHDL simulations I use Sonata,out of compulsion as its free!
(Educational Institutions and free software go together!)
Anyways,I want to know whether it is possible to generate a VCD file from
a simulation from this software,and if so how?
It does save the waveforms,but in a self readable format (.sws or
something)...and I need the VCD file for further processing.
Any ideas?
Thanks a lot

Have a look at their web page. There is an area called contribution:

You find a tool called Lst2Vcd which converts the output from Sonata to
a VCD file.

Hope that helps.

Hi
Thanks a lot for the link.The utility lst2vcd however seems to exist only
for Windows.After downloading and unzipping the file,I saw a whole bunch
of .exe and .bat files,and README.TXT confirmed it.
I use Linux (Mandrake) and wuld appreciate if anybody has any other tools
or utilities for linux
Thanks again Guenter.

Did you look at the Simi2Vcd tool? It seems to have C code included.

There is a C source code file included in the lst2vcd.zip file.
For UNIX/Linux coment out the first line of the C code
(that was for Turbo C) and then you can compile it using gcc.
