Hi Arpad,
This is how we had originally proposed the change. We can also eliminate
the 'Parameter_file_name' subparameter by simply requiring to have the
parameter file name to be the same as the dll name (in this case, it
will be example_rx.ami).
The only scenario where keeping the subparameter would be useful is when
there might be multiple parameter files for a single dll.
Whatever we chose - I think we are on the right path here.
-Ambrish.

Something just popped to my mind. To be consistent
with the usual keyword syntax in IBIS, we should
probably not use the parentheses format for the
argument, but the subparameter format in which the
subparameter is the argument.
So instead of my previous suggestion:
[Algorithmic Model <modelName(ParameterFileName)>]
we should probably use this syntax:
[Algorithmic Model]
Executable Windows_VisualStudio_32 example_rx.dll
Parameter_file_name FileName.ami
Any comments?
Thanks,
Arpad

I like this approach. It is technically equivalent to the two approaches
discussed last week in the ATM meeting. This one has the additional
benefit of using only one keyword *algorithmic modeling*.

I was wondering about the parameter passing alternatives and thought of
something that may be better than what we left off with in the last
IBIS-ATM meeting. Instead of using a two-keyword approach, something
like this:
[Algorithmic Model <modelName>]
[Model Parameter <ParameterFileName>]
I thought we could perhaps do a single keyword approach in which we give
the parameter file name as an argument to the algorithmic model call,
something like this:
[Algorithmic Model <modelName(ParameterFileName)>]
The rule would be to have one (or no) argument to the
ModelName() and this argument would always be a file name that holds all
the parameters.
Any comments?
By the way, we have already done this with the IBIS Macro Library's IBIS
buffer models and the accompanying Perl script which extracts the IV and
Vt data from the IBIS file for them. (Ambrish, who wrote the Perl
script is very familiar with this concept...)
