Files and Paths

Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

The anchor for most files in the ASH WARE eTPU Simulator is the project file. Users should generally place files in the same directory as the project file, or in sub directories relative to the project file. When the simulator is closed, the path to all files re saved relative to the project file.

Take as an example the following situation.

A directory, 'SimDir', contains the project file and sub directory, 'MySubDir'. In 'MySubDir' there is a behavior verification file, BehVerFile.BV. When the simulator is closed, it automatically saves the project file, and within the project file it saves the path to the behavior verification file, as follows.

MySubDir\BehVerFile.BV

Now if just the project file is moved to a new directory and opened, the simulator will be unable to find the behavior verification file. On the other hand, if the project file and the sub directory and behavior verification file are all moved together, then the simulator is able to find the behavior verification file.
