Parameters for alternative wave form viewer
oscargus opened this issue · 0 comments
We are developing an alternative wave form viewer: https://gitlab.com/surfer-project/surfer and once it is mature enough, it would be nice to add support for it in VUnit. Right now there are the --gtkwave-fmt
and --gtkwave-args
arguments that determines which format is used and how GTKWave is called. However, I'd like to open a discussion about what the best way to implement a switch for wave form viewer would be?
My spontaneous idea is to rename --gtkwave-fmt
to --wave-fmt
or --viewer-fmt
(still supporting both, but only document the latter) and then have a --viewer
-argument (which may default to GTKWave). Possibly also rename --gtkwave-args
to --viewer-args
and pass whatever is there to the select viewer?
Any ideas or input regarding this?
