How to get all the really used layer in the cellview .

Hi All,

How to get all the really used layer in the cellview .

I use geGetEditCellView()~>lpps , it shows some layers that not really exists when stream out gdsii file from PIPO.LOG.

foreach(lpp geGetEditCellView()~>lpps

         printf("Layer is %L\n"  lpp)

 )

Thank you,

Charley

    Charley,

    If the cellView only has instances, no layers are actually used in that cellView, so it should return nil! If you want to see what is used down in the hierarchy, cv~>lpps tells you that already.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
