Which license am I missing?
Answer:
Make sure that you have the $SYNOPSYS environment variable set
to the latest install area path on your network. The utility stil2verilog
will need to check out a Test-Validate license. You will need to check
your LM_LICENSE_FILE or SNPSLMD_LICENSE_FILE variables to make sure that
the latest license file is included in that file.
Alternately, you can also use lmstat to see if Test-Validate is available for
your use:
lmstat -c $LM_LICENSE_FILE -f Test-Validate
The stil2verilog utility is called via a script that is located in
/path_to_install_area/2008.09/bin. This script will call the needed
executable that matches the platform that you are running on. If your
company sets up modules or wrapper scripts to invoke vendor tools, make
sure that these scripts are updated as well.
