How to flatten GDS by stream out or Command

MollyMeow

Hi,

I used follow skill but  db not flatten

procedure( flatten( lib cell view)

let((cvId)

foreach(via cvId~>vias dbFlattenInst(via 32 t nil nil nil t nil t))

foreach(inst cvId~>instance dbFlattenInst(inst 32 t nil nil nil t nil t))

);procedure

also try the command in Linux but fail 

strmout -library try -strmFile try.gds -logFile strmOut.log -summaryFile summary.log -flattenPcells -flattenVias 

(error : Command not found)

(use IC5141)

If anyone know the solution/fix for this problem, please let me know..

reguards,

Molly

 

  • Molly,

    Your flatten function won't do anything, because you've got a local variable cvId which is never assigned - so it will be nil. It never opens the cellView! Secondly, in CDB (the database used in IC5141) there is no cv->vias attribute - that was added in OpenAccess.

    The "strmout" command also doesn't exist in IC5141 either - it was called "pipo" and took different arguments (covered in the documentation and I'm sure in many other posts on this forum - there are some "related thread" shown below this post and you can also search for "pipo" in the forums too).
