attach label to a pin as a 'children'

Dear all,

 I have only pins in the layout and I want to attach a label to it. Unfortunatelly the 'children' cannot be set.

Anyone knows how to set it correctly?

Here is the example of my code. 

Regards,

 

cv=geGetWindowCellView()
p=caar(cv~>terminals~>pins)
foreach(p cv~>terminals~>pins
p1=car(p)
p1~>net~>name
f1=car(p1~>figs)
unless(f1~>children f1~>children=
dbCreateLabel(cv list(f1~>layerName  "label" ) centerBox(f1~>bBox)
p1~>net~>name "centerLeft" "R0" "roman" 0.5)))
 
 
*Error* setSGq: (DB-370034): dbSetq: Cannot set attribute - children

    These work well for my case in getting all the relations & connectivity correct:

    pin = leCreatePin(...)

    label = dbCreateLabel(...)

    leAttachFig(label pin~>fig)

    dbAddFigToNet(pin~>fig net)

    Thanks I got something working for a few days then after a cadence crash, I started getting errors.  I included the sample of code where things are breaking down just above your comment.

    I think Andrew's post answered the question well.

    If you use SKILL IDE for development, performing a LINT over the procedures would have flagged warnings, such as cv used but never defined, etc.

    Regards!

    Please read the Guidelines for the Custom IC SKILL Forum . Rather than posting on the end of a (loosely related) 6 year old thread, please post a new question. Also don't post, then delete your post, and then post again as a means to get attention. It just irritates people if you do that.

    Andrew.
