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

    I believe the File menu triggers access of each library as a consequence of the history entries in the File menu. I think there are some checks to see if the cellView in the history still exist, and it's these checks which cause the libraries to be accessed.

    I may be wrong about this as I haven't checked recently - this is from memory.

    Either way, as Li said, this is normal behaviour and it doesn't really matter when library initialisation occurs.
