pause
The pause command placed within a macro interrupts the execution of that macro, allowing you
to perform interactive debugging of the macro file.
Syntax
pause
Arguments
•
None.
Description
When you execute a macro and that macro gets interrupted, the prompt will change to:
VSIM(paused)>
This “pause” prompt reminds you that a macro has been interrupted.
When a macro is paused, you may invoke another macro, and if that one gets interrupted, you
may even invoke another — up to a nesting level of 50 macros.
If the status of nested macros gets confusing, use the status command. It will show you which
macros are interrupted, at what line number, and show you the interrupted command.
To resume the execution of the macro, use the resume command. To abort the execution of a
macro use the abort command.
