Equivalent to instancesLastChanged in OA

Eric L14

Hello,

 The instancesLastChanged cellview property is no more available in OA. In CDB, I use this property in order to know if a schematic is newer than a layout (that means layout should be updated and layout checks should be done).

How having this information in OA ?

Thanks

 

Eric

     One way is to compare the time stamps on the files of the cellViews. Use dbGetFileTimeStamp to get the time stamps on the cellViews and if the schematic is newer, flag the layout as possibly out of date.
