RunAsync Command

Spawns a new simulator process and runs specified netlist.

RunAsync has the benefit over Run in that it is possible to carry on working in the front end normally while the simulation runs in the background. The disadvantage is that the asynchronous process cannot communicate with the front end. This means that incremental graph updates are not possible and the data for the simulation needs to be manually loaded after the simulation is complete.

To load the data use the OpenGroup command.

RunAsync <netlist> [<datafile>]

Parameters

netlist

Path to simulation netlist

datafile
