is it possible to run LVS when the layout and schematic are in different library?

Hi,

 I'm trying to run LVS where my layout and schematic are in different library. Can anyone help me?

I think i need to specify the location of the schematic in the *.vlr file, is it right? But the problem here is I do not know how to set the *.vlr file. The LVS that i'm using generates the vlr file by itself.

can anyone guide me how the cellname.vlr file being created?

 If i'm wrong, can anyone guide me where should i start? Thanks

 

Regards,

SL

     Hi Andrew,

     

    Sorry for the confusion. I'm using ASSURA LVS. I've tried the integrated LVS in Virtuoso and it works. What I'm trying to do here is I would like to use command line to perform the same operation as the integrated LVS. I've already able to use the command line to run the LVS for which the layout and schematic located in same library. Now i would like to try to run it for layout and schematic in different library. 

     For the LVS which layout and schematic in same library. The method i use is create the rsf file and then use the assura *.rsf to run the LVS.

    For layout and schematic in different library, I do not know how can i do it. Hope I can get some guidance here. Thanks

    Thanks,

    SL
