When user using command "schHiObjectProperty()" , can I launch function call after press OK/Apply?

Charley,

The way to do this is to use the CDF doneProc for each component - then it can check data once the form has been OK/applied for that type of component.

Hi Andrew,

I use the PDK , so I can't use the CDF doneProc . Can I ?

I just want to check when user use the PDK's symbol , when press OK/Apply ...

I want to handle it when each symbol is using "schHiObjectProperty()" to save the time.

Thank you,

Charley 

Hi Charley,

I think that you can modify / create a User level CDF where you set the doneProc - the virtual memory (Effective) CDF will be the Base level plus the User level, so you can override (or add, as in this case) items there.  So, add the doneProc to the User level CDF and this should allow you to check the symbol that way.  There is no "trigger" I'm aware of that you can use for schHiObjectProperty().  You can easily customize the Check & Save for schematics too, e.g. using schRegPostCheckTrigger() so that when the schematic is Checked you could run your check then.

Hi Lawrence,

I prefer to use " modify / create a User level CDF where you set the doneProc - the virtual memory ..." because

schRegPostCheckTrigger()  will check all of the symbol in schematic , it takes more time.

But I read the documentation about cdfCreateUserCellCDF , I am a user , no write permission.

How to get the cellId ?

Thank you,

Charley

Hi Andrew,

"Write permission"  which means I don't have the PDK write permission.
So I can not modify the cdf to add into doneProc.

I know cellId=ddGetObj("libName" "cellName") , but I do not know how to combine  cellId with when user  press OK/Apply ?

Thank you,

Charley

Hi Andrew,

Sorry , I really have no idea how to do it.  This is the first time to do .

Could you list how many steps should I to do ?

Thank you very much,

Charley

Hi Andrew,

Maybe you misunderstand what I mean. I mean a symbol has user-define property (called "s") , not CDF.

Thank you,

Charley 

Charley,

I think what you want is clear enough, but I think it's you that don't understand. I'm presuming there is CDF for the component, and you want to be able to define something in the CDF which will check on the instance for the presence of a property (called "s")? 

Anyway, I won't be able to put together an example today because I am too busy - this forum work has to be done in my spare time, and realistically I won't have enough spare time today (or possibly tomorrow).

Andrew.
