Cadence IC5.1.41 libInit.il

ag2888
Hi,

I wanted to know is it possible to overwrite the libInit.il file, which is specified in the project area by a local version of the same??
I am actually trying to load a user defined set of "modelPath"s for the analog design environment. So i have another skill script in my local area to do that (this is loaded using .cdsinit). But the libInit.il file in the project area, that is sourced whenever i open the library manager, overwrites the "modelPath"s by loading a script in the project area.

Any suggestions how this can be done?

Any other suggestions on how to add some default set of "modelPath"s for the ADE?

Thanks

  • HI Andrew,

     I edited the .cdsinit as you suggested. So i do the following in there now and it works:

    ddGetObj("yourTechLibName") 

    load("myLocalModel.il") 

    I did not load my loca libInit file as i was doing it to just change the customExit version of same and my basic aim was to load some user defined set of model files for ADE at statup. This way now it works. Thanks a lot!

    Also i have one more doubt wrt to the display of the schematic in schematic composer. The colours for the various components seem to be different from what is seen normally. For e.g : yellow colour for the wires, Instance names for the ports in pink etc.

    I tried editing and loading the changed display.drf from my local path but the colours dont change still. Any suggestion for this?
