"None of the properties 'lastSchematicExtraction' or 'syLastExtraction' was found" problem

archive

Hi, there.
I have a project in my local computer, after I moved it to a network computer, the project can not be simulated and in CIW the following MSG is displayed.  
Quote:

can't find the date XXXXXXX/XXXXXXX/schematic was last extracted. None of the properties 'lastSchematicExtraction' or 'syLastExtraction' was found.

I really can not get rid of this. it is very important for me. so pls help me.   Thanks.

  • You need to do a check-and-save of the specified schematic. That will fix it.

    I get the same error with a calibre netlist, using config view. I've checked and saved both schematic and calibre view but still same error. Any ideas?

    Thanks,

    Niall.

  • Niall,

    I've seen this happening with Calibre Views with SKILL customization which is modifying it after the save. Is the Calibre view a "layout" or "schematic" type view?

    It should tell you in the CIW exactly which cellView it is complaining about - it's only that one that needs "checking". Perhaps you can post the message here?

    Regards,

    Andrew.

  • Hi Andrew,

    Thanks for the reply. I actually got around it by using a "layout" type view, i was having the problem with a "schematic" type view.

    I'll try to post the error message for the "schematic" type view at a later date.

    Thanks for your help,
    Niall.

  • Hi Andrew,

    Actually, I'm having the same problem with Niall. I already enabled 'Masklayout' as Calibre view but still having the problem. This is the error message I'm seeing.

    ERROR: Netlister: can't find the date lib_dir/circuit1/calibre was last extracted. None of the properties 'lastSchematicExtraction' or 'syLastExtraction' was found.
    Any idea why it's happening?
    Looks like this is 'check and save' related issue but I can't find 'check and save' option in layout or calibre view. It has only 'save' and I'm not sure how it's different from 'check and save' in schematic.
    Calibre view was generated successfully from layout.
    Thanks in advance,

  • You probably should report this to Mentor, as it may be their code is not marking the connectivity as correct after creation.

    You can probably workaround it by opening the calibre view, and typing:

    dbSetConnCurrent(cv=geGetEditCellView())
    dbSave(cv)

    but you really should find out the root cause of the problem first.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
