VerilogA code for instance name and read write file

[CadenceUser888]

file read in veriloga

I currently use verilogA (in cadence 2006) to simulate a component with non static internal variable that I'd like to load/store (read/write from/to a file) corresponding to its instance (number or name, like I0,I1...), since the same component is replicated many times, I don't know if it's possible to write some verilog A code and how to get for each instance its reference in the netlist ?

Thanks

veriloga fscanf

It seems possible.
Try parameter.
When you instantiate such a component, you can transfer info such as instance name to component internal using iPar (I am not sure. You need refer to the cdsdoc).

veriloga $fscanf

It doesn't work. I can't even create a parameter string type in the verilog A source file !

Added after 1 hours 50 minutes:

Although, there is functions as $fopen("%I") and $fwrite, but why not $fread or $fscanf ?

It seems in verilog A, no file can be read from the disk !!


Thx
