Does Assura version affect QRC

Jsierra over 15 years ago

Hi,
I'm trying to setup QRC and I've followed the manual by adding the following:

In the csh file:

setpath = ($EXT_8_1_4/tools/bin $path)

In the cds file:

setenv QRC_HOME usr/cds/ext-8.1.4

However QRC is not showing up in the menu on the virtuoso layout editor.

I'm using IC 5.1.41 latest subversion, Assura 3.1.5

Could this be due to the version of assura I am using?

Thanks,
Jon

Sorry for the delay in an update guys. I just switched over to Assura 3.1.7 (seems to be the newest version I have access to) but i'm still having no luck. I'm going to post what i have in my shell script, cds and csh files in hope that maybe someone can find some silly mistake as I'm very inexperienced with linux.
