Automatic creation of hierarchy config for IC5

Zhimiao Chen

Hi, all,

 I want to create the hierarchy config view in Cadence IC5 automatically by SKILL. I searched in this forum and found some functions like hdbSetTopViewName,  hdbSetDefaultLibListString, hdbSetDefaultViewListString, hdbSetDefaultStopListString to support this creation. However, in IC5 (I am now using IC5.10.41), these functions cannot be found out from startFinder, and it seems they are not supported. 

 Anyone has some ideas to make this creation of config also possible in Cadence IC5?

 Thanks very much in advance!

 Zhimiao

    Zhimiao,

    Those functions exist in IC5141 (at least in later subversions), just haven't been documented until IC61. So you should be able to use them - give them a try...

    It doesn't really matter about them being supported, since IC5141 is no longer supported anyway (so if something doesn't work, it's not going to get fixed) - it's worth a shot...

    Regards,

    Andrew.
