LEF generation from abstract is missing class,symmetry, origin information

anandmohan

HI ,

I am trying to generate LEF file of an abstract (top level cell: TOP_CELL). Eventhough LEF is getting generated it is missing the following information.

###################################################
CLASS;
Symmetry ;
SIZE X Y;
FOREIGN TOP_CELL_NAME (0 0) N

ORIGIN (0 0);

#######################################


I am using LEF Version: 5.7
Virtuoso: IC6.1.7-64b.500.7

options  enabled in LEF generation menu window are

1) LEF File Name:  TOP_CELL.lef

2)cells

3)Output cell(s): TOP_CELL

4)Output views : abstract

5) Lef version: 5.7
6)No Technology

7)Generate cell list by: Cells in Design

8)Use GUI Fields


Is there anything wrong in the way LEF is being generated ?.  I am seeing the pin information and blockage layer information  available in the LEF file that was generated.



Regards
Anand

    HI Andrew,

    Abstract view was manually created by copying the pins from layout and placing it in a new view. Apart from pins abstract view had PR boundary and metal blockage layers (created as objects). The pins & layers are placed in same location as in layout.
