Error while netlisting

ank088
ank088 over 10 years ago

Hello

I observe the following error while doing a CDL netlisting from the schematic view:

ERROR (OSSGLD-86): Invalid path Vector Id argument. The current level '33' of hierarchy is greater
than '32', the maximum depth allowed. Specify a valid pathVector value.

The error seems indicate that there is a depth issue in the schematic ie more than 32 levels.

That is not the case with this schematic.

Any other reason, I am seeing this error?

I am using IC 615.5.17

Thanks

    Do you accidentally have a recursive design hierarchy? In other words, where you instantiate something which appears above you in the hierarchy?

    I've not seen any other case where this happens. If you can't figure it out, please contact customer support so that we can look at your data together.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
