SDF-SIM offers the user the following statements:
DEFINE-TEST-OBJECT defines the type of the test object. The test object can be either a command or a statement.
DEFINE-ENVIRONMENT defines a test environment.
START-SIMULATION terminates simulation preparation and starts simulation.
The SDF standard statements (MODIFY-SDF-OPTIONS, REMARK, RESTORE-SDF-INPUT, SHOW-INPUT-HISTORY, SHOW-SDF-OPTIONS, SHOW-STMT, STEP, SHOW-INPUT-DEFAULTS, RESET-INPUT-DEFAULTS, WRITE-TEXT) can likewise be used in SDF-SIM. These standard statements will be actually executed at any point in the SDF-SIM run, i.e. even after START-SIMULATION (during * prompting), and therefore have a direct effect on the simulation run. For example, you can enter statements in guided dialog during simulation or conduct an error dialog.
The metasyntax used for SDF-SIM statements can be found in section “Metasyntax”. The SDF standard statements are described in the “Introductory Guide to the SDF Dialog Interface” [1 (Related publications)].
