SYNOPSIS

       AFFECT ("pattern_date", "ident", "value");

PARAMETERS

       pattern_date
		 : pattern date which may be either : integer (absolute date) or + integer (relative date, the date of the current  pattern  (last
		 modified  using  INIT or AFFECT) is the reference). All dates are supposed to be expressed in the same time unit which may be set
		 only once using SETTUNIT.

       ident	 Either the name of a bused signal or a scalar. Vectors must be referenced with their names only, or bit per bit. For example,	if
		 b(3 downto 0) exists, you can affect "b", "b(3)" or "b 3".  Path-name must be specified by the syntax : instance1.instance11.name

       value	 The  value associated with the signal which may be either a based number (ex. binary: 0b011 ,hexa:  0x3F, octal: 0o56) or a deci-
		 mal number. Unknown value (value where a '*' appears), can be used when dealing with an  output,  a  signal,  a  register  or	an
		 input/output  when  this last one is to be tested.  Star ('*') can appears everywhere in a BASED number, but the result will be a
		 "full star" value. (For example, "0B0*10" and "0B***" would give the same result.) AFFECT is doing automatically the  transforma-
		 tion  of  the value into a "forced" value or a "tested" value except for the bidirectional connectors affectation. When and bidi-
		 rectional is to be tested, a '?' character must be added before the value (example : "?0x45f*" instead of "0x45f*").

DESCRIPTION

       "Affect" a value to a signal. This value will be apllied to the signal, at the specified simulation date, until the end of  the	simulation
       or  until  a new value is affected to the signal. Beware : Inputs have to be affected at the begining of the simulation (first pattern at 0
       ps). By default, signals (except Inputs) are affected with a "full star" value at the first pattern.

       This fonction also set the current pattern.

EXAMPLES

       SETTUNIT("ps");
       AFFECT ("5", "b", "0B1");
       result : 	   b
       <      5 ps> :.....1...;

       At simulation date 0 ps the signal b(3 downto 0) receives the value "0001".  This value will be kept until the end of the simulation if	no
       more affectation is made.

       SETTUNIT("ns");
       AFFECT ("0", "b", "0B0");
       AFFECT ("2", "b", "0B1");
       result : 	   b
       <      0 ns> :.....0...;
       <      2 ns> :.....1...;

NAME

       instr - find an occurence of a string in a string, starting at a specified character.

ORIGIN

       This  software  belongs	to  the  ALLIANCE CAD SYSTEM developed by the ASIM team at LIP6 laboratory of Universite Pierre et Marie CURIE, in
       Paris, France.

SYNOPSYS

       #include "mut.h"
       char *instr(s, find, from)
       char *s, *find, from;

PARAMETERS

       s		   Pointer to the string to be searched for the pattern

       find		   Pointer to the string to be found, the pattern

       from		   Character to be searched backwards before searching for the pattern

DESCRIPTION

       instr searches the first occurence of the string find in the string s, starting its search at the last occurence of the from  character	in
       the string s.

       If either s or find is NULL, the function returns NULL.	If from is (char)0, the pattern is searched from the begining of s.
       This  quite  exotic behaviour is useful to search the occurence of a name in a string resulting from a flatten, when only a terminal object
       name is to be taken into account.

RETURN VALUES

       instr return NULL either if the pattern find is not present in the searched string s, or if one at least of these two string are NULL.	If
       the pattern is found, a value different from NULL is returned.

EXAMPLE

       #include "mut.h"
       /* check for the pattern 'ck' anywhere in the string */
       #define contains_ck(name)instr(name, "ck", ' ')
       /* check for the pattern 'ck' in the signal name, not instance ones */
       #define isclock(ptsig) instr(getsigname(ptsig), "ck", SEPAR)
