PLI code via the \fIvpi_get_vlog_info\fP function. This means that

vpi modules may use arguments that do not start with + and be assured

that they do not interfere with user defined plus-args.

There are a few extended arguments that are interpreted by the
|
||||
standard system module, which implements the standard system tasks and
|
||||
so is always included. These flags arguments are described here.
|

.TP 8
|
||||
.B -vcd
|
||||
This extended argument sets the wave dump format to VCD. This is the
|
||||
default in the absence of any \fBIVERILOG_DUMPER\fP environment
|
||||
variable. The VCD dump files are large and ponderous, but are also
|
||||
maximally compatible with third party tools that read waveform dumps.
|

|

.TP 8
|
||||
.B -lxt\fR|\fP-lxt-speed\fR|\fP-lxt-space
|
||||
These extended arguments set the wave dump format to lxt, possibly with
|
||||
format optimizations. The \fB-lxt-space\fP flag sets the output
|
||||
format to lxt with full compression enabled. The resulting files are
|
||||
quite small. The \fB-lxt-speed\fP chooses the lxt compression mode
|
||||
that leads to the best execution time and the fastest read time, at
|
||||
the expense of some file size.
