problem with figs~>lpps~>layerName

Hello,

I have such a problem with my SKILL code and design:

My code looks like this

cv=geGetWindowCellView(window(3))

printf("\nALL LPPS (Layer purpose pair) \n")

; Here I want to check what LPPS I have in my design

;

for( i 0 length(cv~>lpps~>layerName)-1

printf( "LPP name: %s purpose %s \n", nth(i

cv~>lpps~>layerName), nth(i cv~>lpps~>purpose))

);for

printf("\n Figures belongs to LPPS \n")

print(cv~>nets~>figs~>lpps~>layerName)cv=geGetWindowCellView(window(3))

printf("\nALL LPPS (Layer purpose pair) \n")

for( i 0 length(cv~>lpps~>layerName)-1

printf( "LPP name: %s purpose %s \n", nth(i

cv~>lpps~>layerName), nth(i cv~>lpps~>purpose))

);for

; Here I'd like to check if all figs belongs to appropriate LPPS (2)

;

printf("\n Figures belongs to LPPS \n")

print(cv~>nets~>figs~>lpps~>layerName)

The problem is that in (2) I get an empty list (nil)

The result of the above code looks like this:

ALL LPPS (Layer purpose pair)

LPP name: pin purpose drawing

LPP name: device purpose drawing

LPP name: PO1 purpose drawing

LPP name: ME1 purpose drawing

Figures belongs to LPPS

(nil nil nil nil nil nil nil nil nil nil nil nil nil nil nil nil nil nil nil)

Why is it so? Does anyone have any ideas?

    Andrew,

    Thank you once again for your suggestions.

    I don't know really what do you mean by: “normal customer support channel into Cadence”... Because I'm not owner of a Cadence software I only use it at my University. Could you put here a link, please?

    The second thing is about the extraction rules in Assura. The problem is that I don't know what data I could put here to make the things a little more clearer. Of course I assume that by extraction rules you meant something which is set in here:

    http://home.elka.pw.edu.pl/~tscislo/rcx.jpg

    So I've found this directory in my file system but it has lots of files and I don't really know where to look.

    You also asked me what I'm trying to check on my extracted view. As I said earlier – I have an application in SKILL which uses extracted views and object cv~>nets~>figs to do some calculations, but in this case the application does not work because there are no figs on nets...

    Thanks,

    ToM
