How to access fields inside table

Sandeep4386

I am having issue in accesing table fields.. 

Here is how I have created my table:

 Device_Asso_Table = makeTable("DeviceTable" 0)

 Device_Asso_Table[key]=list(inst~>name inst~>cellName inst~>libName count)

Key is nothing but a cell name.

 

When I print my table, it looks like below

("RPPOLY" ("R1" "RPPOLY" "csrN40" 0))

 Format is ("key"(inst~>name inst~>cellName inst~>libName count)) 

 Now I want to increment count based on certain conditions. How do I point to the field count?  

Any help will be appreciated.

    It would really help if you showed your entire code - at the very least the defstruct statement, the makeTable statement, and the code you're using to add a new entry in the table or update an existing entry.

    The snippet I gave was based on the assumption that you'd given nil as the second argument to makeTable - that way if array[key] returned nil then it would have to add the entry into the table, but if non-nil, it would be the structure instance ready to be updated.

    But it's really hard to debug without seeing your code.
