simv [simv_options] -ucli

% simv -ucli
ucli%
# 输入help可以查看命令

交互脚本方式: simv -ucli -i ucli_script.inc

交互脚本是tcl格式的，可以使用for循环。

for {set i 0} {$i < 8} {incr i} {
    force a 1
    run 10ns
    force top.b 0
    run 10ns
    force b\[0\] 1; # force b[0]为1， 需要加\
}

force 命令注意，只能force信号为具体的值，不能force一个信号到另外一个信号
force到的具体值需要给完整的宽度，比如8'd28, 不能直接给28,可能会有宽度不匹配的问题，导致force失败。
force 信号最好给完整的信号hier名，尤其是有的仿真设置了多个-top

这是为了在netlist仿真的时候，有一些不带reset/set的register给其赋个初始值，避免X态传播。

+vcs+initreg+random option must be specified at compile time

# 以下可以在run simv时指定
+vcs+initreg+0
+vcs+initreg+1
+vcs+initreg+random      // 采用赋随机值
+vcs+initreg+seed_value

在编译时加上 +no_notifier 选项。

initial begin
  if($test$plusargs("test")) begin
    $display("haha");
  end
