skill ruby interface for openaccess

skillseeker

Hi,

I am asking for the best method to approach this problem.

 

I would like to execute skill commands on a Cadence database in a unix shell command line. Ideally i would not want to worry if the ICFB session is active or not. So i would prefer not to use ipc protocols as my understanding is these require you to connect to a live Cadence ICFB session.

Also would not prefer to run icfb -nograph mode and execute skill this way.

My OS platform is SUSE11. The programming language that needs to interact with the skill output is ruby.

What is the best method to achive this case.

 

Thanks

  •  Si2 (the owner of OpenAccess) provides a Ruby scripting interface for its members. Cadence supplies a cds.lib plug-in that you can use to read the cds.lib file. Most of the Virtuoso database is in the OA standard, some new functionality is defined in oaAppDefs which are private to Virtuoso.

    You should be able to access the database for what you are trying to do using the script. If you have to read pcells, you can read them using the Express Pcell plug-in included with Virtuoso with your script.

    See the Virtuoso documentation on these plug-ins.
