How to check for schematic last save and last extracted in OA

vlau2

I have a piece of SKILL code in cdba that used 2 database data:

cv~>lastSchematicExtraction

cv~>instanceLastChanged

which now returns nil in OA. 

I want to check whether this schematic needs to checkNSave (extract) again.

What is the equivalent functions in OA?

    Hi,

    for the lastSchematicExtraction you can use the following function under OpenAccess:

    dbIsConnCurrent(cv)

    I think for the instancesLastChanged property, cellview counters are used instead - the function dbSetConnCurrent() can be used to bring the counter up to date.

    Regards,

    Lawrence.
