Starting the simulator
The CIF simulator can be started in the following ways:
- 
      In Eclipse, right click a .cifor.cifxfile in the Project Explorer tab or Package Explorer tab and choose .
- 
      In Eclipse, right click an open text editor for a .cifor.cifxfile and choose .
- 
      Use the cifsimtool in a ToolDef script. See the scripting documentation and tools overview page for details.
- 
      Use the cifsimcommand line tool.
Once you start the simulator, an option dialog will appear, where you can configure the simulation options.
Instead of a CIF model (e.g. a .cif or .cifx file), simulation can also be started for a compiled code file (e.g. a .cifcode file). For compiled code files, an additional option is available. The simulator can also be started by double clicking such a file.
