LCA2NCD Syntax

The following syntax converts an LCA file to an NCD file.

lca2ncd [options] lca_file[.lca] [ncd_file][.ncd]]

Options can be any number of the options listed in the “LCA2NCD Options” section. They do not need to be listed in any particular order. Separate multiple options with spaces.

lca_file is the LCA file to be converted. If you enter a file name with no extension, LCA2NCD looks for a file with an .lca extension and the name you specified.

ncd_file is an optional name for the output NCD file. The output file name, its extension, and its location are determined in this way.

• If you do not specify an output file name, the output file has the same name as the input file, with an .ncd extension.
  
  
• If you specify an output file name with no extension, LCA2NCD appends the .ncd extension to the file name.
  
  
• If you specify a file name with an extension other than .ncd, you get an error message and LCA2NCD does not run.
  
  
• If you do not specify a full pathname, the output file is placed in the directory from which you ran LCA2NCD.
