CheckandSave in editor XL

Telekito

 Hi,

 Firstly, in IC6 I dont have Virtuoso_Schematic_Editor_L, I have to use Editor_XL.

I use no-graph mode and I want to change the schematic and simulate then. In IC5 i used:

cv=dbOpenCellViewByType("lib" "cell" "view" "schematic" "a")

.....

schCheck(cv)

dbSave(cv)

...

and simulate with ocean.

Now, schCheck() is failing because I can't use Editor_L. Can I use schCheck() in XL_editor? or maybe can i do CheckandHow?

Thanks.

     Hi again,

     of course, when I use schCheck():

    *WARNING* (icLic-3) Could not get license Virtuoso_Schematic_Editor_L

    *WARNING* (SCH-1317): Failed to extract lib cell view. Check that a suitable license is available.

    And when i use ocean:

    ERROR (OSSHNL-109): The cell view, 'cell', has been modified since the last extraction.

    I have tried different functions to check the schematic but all of them need  license Virtuoso_Schematic_Editor_L.

     Thanks.

    Normally if this was being done graphically, a popup would appear asking you wanted to move up the license tiers. You can avoid that by using:

    envSetVal("license" "VSELicenseCheckoutOrder" 'string "XL,L")

    before calling schCheck().

    Regards,

    Andrew.
