problem when executing for loop

Hi All!

this is a code to explore the usefulness of dbGetTrueOverlaps.

procedure(ca_get_pos()
cv = geGetEditCellView()
LP = car(exists(lpp cv~>lpps lpp~>layerName=="RX" && lpp~>purpose == "drawing"))
foreach(bBox LP~>shapes~>bBox
for(i 0 2
shapes = dbGetTrueOverlaps(cv bBox list("CA" "drawing") i)
cabBox = cadadr(shapes)~>bBox
origin = caar(shapes)~> xy
originX = nth(0 origin)
originY = nth(1 origin)
rows = caar(shapes)~>rows
columns = caar(shapes)~>columns
pitch_x = caar(shapes)~>uX
pitch_y = caar(shapes)~>uY
)
for(i 0 rows
x1 = caar(cabBox)
y1 = cadar(cabBox)+originY+(i*pitch_y)
x2 = caadr(cabBox)
y2 = cadadr(cabBox)+originY+(i*pitch_y)
dbCreateRect(cv list("CA" "drawing") '((x1 y1) (x2 y2)))
    )))

however when i execute

for(i 0 rows
x1 = caar(cabBox)
y1 = cadar(cabBox)+originY+(i*pitch_y)
x2 = caadr(cabBox)
y2 = cadadr(cabBox)+originY+(i*pitch_y)
dbCreateRect(cv list("CA" "drawing") '((x1 y1) (x2 y2)))
    )

cabBox, shapes, pitch_y, pitch_x,origin, originX, originY etc. all became nil.

please help me to debug this

hi adhil.
from your first "for" statement you have the ff
shapes = dbGetTrueOverlaps(cv bBox list("CA" "drawing") i)
cabBox = cadadr(shapes)~>bBox
I think the number of objects in "shapes" varies depending on the situation so how come you simply perform "cadadr(shapes)~>bBox"
