Saved analysis artifacts
Files and recorded data from local Testbench simulation on Windows desktop.
On Windows desktop 2.1.2.3, Testbench simulation saves each run under .alti/sim/<runId>/ in the current Digital Design Studio project. The run ID identifies that run's saved files.
Saved files
File | Contents |
|---|---|
| Run status and exit code; simulator and extension versions; source paths and SHA-256 digests; log; waveform and viewer-file identities; start and finish times. |
Testbench dump file | The original VCD or FST waveform, when produced, saved with the testbench's dump filename. |
| The VCD file created from an FST waveform for display in Digital Design Studio. |
Each waveform record includes its format, project-relative path, byte size and SHA-256 digest.
Waveform formats
Waveform format offers VCD and FST. Digital Design Studio displays VCD directly and converts FST into a VCD view. The waveform viewer accepts VCD views up to 33554432 bytes (32 MiB).
Read the result
After a run produces a waveform view, Digital Design Studio reads the saved file and checks its byte size and SHA-256 digest before opening it. Expand Simulator log to read that run's log.
