skill code to change the direction of pin,and symbol of that pin also

SUBBHAREDDY

Hi

 I want to change the direction of pin from input to inout pin,and at the same time i want to change the symbol

of that pin also in schematic view.

Pls write a sample code for the above requirement.

 Thanks and regards

Subbhareddy 

 

  • term=dbFindTermByName(cvId "termName")
    term~>direction="inputOutput"
    master=dbOpenCellViewByType("basic" "iopin" "symbol")
    foreach(pin term~>pins
    pin~>fig~>master=master
    )

    Note that in OA versions potentially you might need to update pin~>figs (rather than fig) but I don't think the schematic editor makes use of multiple pin figures yet.

    Regards,

  • Hi Andrew,

    I'd like to the same thing here, but on symbol pin. I followed your code, but stuck at "pin~>fig~>master=master", since there is not master properties. The code works fine on schematic.

  • For symbol pins, these are not normally instances - they're just a shape. So it would be sufficient to do:

    term=dbFindTermByName(cvId "termName")
    term~>direction="inputOutput"

    Regards,

    Andrew
