Foundation Logic Simulator - The simulator is ignoring a "Break" command
Description
Keywords: Foundation, Logic Simulator, break
Urgency: Standard
General Description: I have placed multiple "Break" commands on the same signal in a script file, but only the final "Break" entered is obeyed.
For example:
The following statements are entered in a script file:
break signalA 1-0 do(assign X 0) break signalA 0-1 do(assign Y 0)
Y is assigned to 0 when signalA transitions from 0 to 1, but X is not assigned to 0 when signalA transitions from 1 to 0; the second break overrides the first break.
Solution
This problem occurs because only one "Break" command can be placed on each signal.
The only way to work around this issue is to find different signals for each "Break" command that is to be placed in a script file.
