     Hi all,

     I write a code for this which works not properly. First I take files which contain .gds as suffi. my code is below.

     In the template File field, specify a file with path and save it. For example /template/file and click on Save button.

    procedure(CCSStreamoutFiles( dirPath tempFileOrDPL @key (suffix ".gds") )
        let((gdsFileList )
            if(stringp(tempFileOrDPL) && isFile(tempFileOrDPL) then
                loadi(tempFileOrDPL)
            else
                error("\n Specify correct parameter file ...")
            ) ; if
            gdsFileList=setof(x getDirFiles(dirPath) and(isFile(x) rexMatchp(suffix x)))
          
          foreach(filename gdsFileList
                CCSImportstreamIn(strcat(dirPath "/" filename) streamInKeys filename )
                   ) ; foreach
            t
        ) ; let
    ) ; procedure
     
     

    procedure(CCSImportstreamIn(gdsFile streamInKeys filename )
        let((template fileName ipcId)
            streamInKeys~>inFile=gdsFile
            streamInKeys~>primaryCell =car(parseString(filename ".gds"))
            printf("Writing streamIn for %s to %s/%s layout\n"
                filename libName streamInKeys~>primaryCell
                     ) ; printf
            fileName=makeTempFileName("/tmp/StreamIn")
            template=outfile(fileName)
            fprintf(template "streamInKeys='%L\n" streamInKeys)
            close(template)
            ipcId=ipcBeginProcess(strcat("nino strmin " fileName))
            ipcWait(ipcId)
            deleteFile(fileName)
        ) ; let
    ) ; procedure
    ;; =============

     When i entered it in CIW

    CCSStreamoutFiles("/path/directory"  "/template/file")

    CIW shows :*Error* putprop: first arg must be either symbol, list, defstruct or user type -"/path/directory"
