Rename label and part of instance in multiple layouts

AnuJoamon
AnuJoamon over 16 years ago

I have many layout cells in my library in which I need to do two changes

  1. I want to replace label xxxABxxx with xxxCDxxx (in a specific layer say "m1" "dg")
  2. Replace instance yyyAByyy from library YYYY to instance zzzCDzzz from library ZZZZ.
  3. Check that there is no instance in the entire library coming either from the same library of one reference library (specified).

Anuj.

    Your second argument needs to be in this form:  list("a" "b" "c") or list(obj1 obj2 obj3)

    In your example, wireCellList must be a list of items, even if it is a list of only one item. The second foreach in the code you posted is using cv~>instances which will either be nil (a valid list), or a list of object ids like: list(db:421865904 db:421865868 db:421865832 db:421865796)

    If you have a string that has multiple items separated by a space, you can convert this to a list using parseString.

    From the error, it looks like you are passing in the string "list". This is what needs to change.
