multiple instantiations of a module #1410

Closed veripoolbot closed 5 years ago

Author Name: kishore babu nainappagari Original Redmine Issue: 1410 from https://www.veripool.org

Hi Wilson,

I would like to instantiate a module N times (N >= 2000) in another module like below.

adder inst1 ( .in1(in1), in2(in2),out(out)); ... adder inst1000 ( .in1(in1), in2(in2),out(out));

I tried generating 5 instantiations using AUTOINSERTLISP and AUTOINST like below but it was flagging an error.

May I pls know if there's a better way to do it

/AUTOINSERTLISP(insert (shell-command-to-string " foreach n ( 1 2 3 4 5 ) adder instn (/AUTOINST/ "))/

Pls suggest.

The */ you are trying to insert is taken to end the AUTO, split it. Also avoid calling the shell to make it faster and portable.

/*AUTOINSERTLISP(dotimes (i 5) (insert "  adder instn (/" "*AUTOINST*" "/);\n"))*/
