    Hi All,

    I'm currently using ic 6.1.3.500.14. When I changed my environmenttal
    variable CDS_AUTO_64BIT to ALL. I couldn't see Virtuoso or the icfb
    64bit executables available in this version. Instead layout is
    available can I invoke layout instead of virtuoso and generate a 64
    bit context files.

    I'm using linux OS with 64 bit machine.

    Need help urgently.

    Thanks,
    jack.

    In IC613 and before, only "layout" is supported in 64 bit. So it only makes
    sense to generate 64-bit contexts for applications which are layout-related.
    icfb and virtuoso have never been supported in 64 bit mode.

    In other words, provided that your application will run in the "layout"
    executable, it makes sense to produce a 64 bit context file for it.

    In IC614, support for 64 bit virtuoso will be there - so the IC tools across the
    board will work in 64 bit mode.

    Regards,

    Andrew.

    Hi Andrew,

    Thanks for you reply. With layout command I could see the following
    errors ,

    Error message when invoking layout command (64 bit):

    Error (gdmLoadSharedLib): Loading "libgdmsync_sh.so" has failed.

    Error (dlopen): libgdmsync_sh.so: cannot open shared object file: No
    such file or directory

    Error (gdmiLoadDMLibrary): Could not load library './libgdmsync_sh.so'
    for DM system 'sync'

    Error (gdmImportDMSystem): DM system 'sync' as specified in file '' is
    not available due to errors

    If you can get me the solution it will be really helpful.

    Thanks,
    Jack.

    These look like issues with DesignSync. Wrong version? Faulty
    installation? The missing library is definitely from DesignSync.

    Thanks Mark,

    I will check with design sync installation.
