cadence default text editor

i am useing cadence IC 5.141 on Suse 10
i tried to change the editor by be gedit or kwrite instead of the defult editor vi
but when i try open any cell view (eg.verilogA) i get this error
/usr/local/cdstree/tools/lib/libgcc_s.so.1: version `GCC_3.3' not found (required by /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6)

i tried it with gedit ,kwrite, kate , judit all give the same error
any ideas?!
thanx in advance

cadence text editor

I don't know about Suse, but for RedHat and LineOX I added into .cdsinit file

editor="/path_to_editor"

and everything works.
I use "nedit"

change editor cadence

I think u have to install a package called gcc or gcc_3.3 as written and i think u can find it on the SUSE installation CDs,anyway i am not sure at all but i faced a problem like this before and it worked when i installed the package

cadence change default editor

Suse 10 comes with GCC 4. Are you sure the 3.3 compatible libraries are installed?

I am not sure if there is gedit in suse kde, but you can try xedit as your default cadence ic editor.

text editor change cadence

The way that you are trying is correct. To change the editor, just type in the command interpreter (or put in the .cdsinit) the line:

editor = "path_to_editor"

The error that you reported occurs because, to setup the cadence environment, the library paths and binaries paths are changed, and with this new path, probably the editor does not work. The error reports the library /usr/local/cdstree/tools/lib/libgcc_s.so.1 (this is not the path of the system libraries ;-) )

Did you tried to launch the editor (kwrite) from the terminal after the setup of cadence? Maybe the same error will occur...

Tip: Try one that works
Tip (now serious): correct the library path order to get both working, editors and cadence, or prepend in the command a library path that works for you:
editor = "LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/lib:/usr/lib <path to editor>"

Ps.: The post that I am answering is very old, but maybe could be useful for somebody...
