Error during stream out

Mohannad

 Hello,

I am making a PCELL using skill. When I load the PCELL .il file through icfb window, everything works fine. I insert te cell in another layout and then try to steam out the layout to a .gds file, but I get this error:

FATAL(449): Pcell eveluation failed. This could happen as a result ofeither a syntax error or the use of an unsupported PIPO function

 I would greatly appreciate any help.

 Thank you very much

    Do you have any functions or global variables used in your code defined in either the libInit.il (or a file loaded from the libInit.il) of the library containing the pcells?

    It's unclear as to what you've tried, so very hard to debug what the problem is. Clearly the pcell evaluation in the background process is not seeing the definition of something, and hence the pcell is not being evaluated. Usually such issues are simple - just a matter of ensuring that everything is defined, as well as ensuring that any illegal pcell function is not being used (because those functions will not be available in the background process).

    Regards,

    Andrew.
