Hierarchy tree in SKILL from normal schematic, config based schematic and layout

Hi!

I am working on some code to return the hierarchy below a given cell, irregardless of the cell being a layout or schematic and irregardless of the eventual schematic being normal or config based. In the solution provided by Cadence (linked at end of post), this is done through GUI forms. I would however like to do everything in SKILL, without any open window sessions (other than CIW). 

In the solution it is checked if the schematic has a config view by calling deGetConfigId with window_id as argument. As I would like to do everything from SKILL, I need some other function to do this. Is it any function that can return if a schematic has a related config?

As well, the solution states that normal schematic (and thus layout) trees (no related config, that is) can be printed in non-GUI mode by invoking CCSschTree directly from CIW. It does not say anything about it being possible to call the config based equivalent CCShdbSchTree from CIW. Would it be possible to do this and if not, why?

Cheers,
Max
