modifying pin names of a symbol

kawan

I need to grab a symbol, find all the pins and then change the names to include dig_ in front of the original pin names.

I then need to recrerate the symbol. I want teh symbol to have the same shape and pin locations as the original.

 So I have the following:

 ;test code

procedure( buildmysymbol()

pinlist = schSymbolToPinList("zakir_ams" "spi_top" "symbol")
pat=pcreCompile("dig_")
pinlist = pcreReplace(pat pinlist "dig1" 0)

schPinListTosymbol("zakir" "spi_top" "symbol" pinlist)
)

 

The cod edoes not work since the pinlist used in  pcreReplace(pat pinlist "dig1" 0) is  a list and not a string.

Any way to get around this?

 Thanks

zakir
