Command Reference       2.  Synopsys Commands   set_resource_allocation



NAME
          set_resource_allocation
                         Specifies the type of resource
                         allocation on a design.


SYNTAX
          int set_resource_allocation allocation_type

          string allocation_type


ARGUMENTS
          allocation_type
                         Specifies an allocation type of "none",
                         "area_only", or "constraint_driven".
                         "Constraint_driven" directs compile to
                         share resources so that timing
                         constraints are met or, not made worse
                         by sharing.  "Area_only" directs compile
                         to share operators without considering
                         timing constraints.  "None" specifies no
                         resource sharing, so that each operation
                         is implemented with separate circuitry.


DESCRIPTION
          Assigns the resource_allocation attribute that
          determines the type of resource sharing for the current
          design.  The synthetic_library variable must be set for
          resource sharing to take affect.

          Use the remove_attribute command to undo this command.


EXAMPLES
          The following example sets the resource_allocation
          attribute on design TEST to "area_only".


                         dc_shell> current_design = TEST
                         dc_shell> set_resource_allocation area_only



          The following example removes the resource_allocation
          attribute from the current design.


                         dc_shell> remove_attribute
                         current_design resource_allocation
