Problem Title:
Powerview 6.0, Edif Netlist Reader V2.3: BNF Parser Error Internal stack overflow
Problem Description:
Urgency: Standard
General Description:
After ngd2edif creates a full timing edif file for a timing simulation using
the -n and -v viewlog command arguments (the -n, flatten netlist, is not the
default), Viewlogic's Edif reader (edifneti) generates errors on the timed
edif file (time_sim.edn).
The exact error is as follows:
Error prepco1_tim.edn 462469 Expecting "edif" (Token="GPA_T_GPA_QT4_EC").
Error tim_sim.edn 1 Expecting "edif" (Token=")").

Re-reading the EDIF file....Please wait....
Solution 1:
This has been confirmed to be an edifneti bug. If a hierarchical edif is
generated from ngd2edif (instead of a flat one), then edifneti will work
properly.
EDIFNETI V2.35 fixes this problem and is a part of Workview Office 7.31.
It is also available for SunOS from the patch area on Viewlogic's ftp site.
The location is:
ftp://ftp.viewlogic.com/pub/support/unix/Powerview/V6.0/SUN4
and the file name is edifi235.tar.Z
