Skill Pcells Loading virtuoso 6.1.5

Hi all,

I have a issue to load Pcell code by libInit file in 6.1.5 virtuoso.

I have a lib in libManager dedicated to Pcells.

When i start virtuoso, Pcell Normally the code must be loaded when i access to libMananger, purpose in my case he is loaded when i click for first time, on "file" button in CIW.

Does someone already had this trouble?
If yes, what should I do?

 Thanks In advance

    Hi Jerome

    The instruction contained in the libInit.il file is loaded automatically when a library is accessed for the very first time. It does not matter how it is accessed. Invoking the libManager or accessing CIW's File menu, which ever is done first by the user, will trigger the access to libraries defined in the cds.lib file and therefore the libInit.il file associated with these libraries will be loaded.

    If you don't use any of these commands after starting up virtuoso and simply type ddGetObj( <library name> ) will also trigger the loading of libInit.il because it is the first time that library is been accessed.

    This is expected behavior for libInit.il.

    Cheers,
