Hi I'm a new comer for SKILL. My question is what are the attributes of object type Cellview?

Are there any documentation describing the object types used in SKILL? 

I cannot find the information on this topic in the local documentation in my department. Thanks a lot.

  •  Hi,

    The section of that manual that you need is entitled "Description of Database Objects" or "Attributes of Cellviews" depending on the version you are using. For example, this is the "Cadence Design Framework II SKILL Functions Reference" or the "Virtuoso Design Environment SKILL Reference" manual.  These should take you to the appropriate section in SourceLink:

    http://sourcelink.cadence.com/docs/files/Release_Info/Docs/skdfref/skdfref6.31/chap2.html#1040921

    http://sourcelink.cadence.com/docs/files/Release_Info/Docs/skdfref/skdfref07.02/chap2.html#1068544

    There are lots of attributes listed, so I will not list them all here, but some common ones are bBox, cellName, cellViewType, instances, terminals, and shapes.  Hopefully you are aware that these can be accessed using the ~> operator, or the dbGet() or dbGetq() SKILL functions, and set using the operator, or the dbSet()/dbSetq() SKILL functions.

    The documentation should also be available as a PDF file, in this case under

    <cds_install_dir>/doc/skdfref/skdfref.pdf

    Hopefully this answers your questions.

    Regards,

    Lawrence.
