How to get Circuit Prospector finders

Ilya Temnikov

Hello

 I can not find how to get any Circuit Prospector finder. For example I want to know the iterator procedure of MOS Differential Pair finder of Structures category in Circuit Prospector. I need to know this using skill interface only but not GUI.

 Regards

Ilya

    Hi Ilya,

    There is a private function to print the list of finders (not one to get them though - just print, so it's for debug purposes), and no SKILL function at all to get the list of categories. Both exist in C++, but haven't been exposed in SKILL.

    Similarly there's a private function to print the list of iterators, but not one to get them.

    Essentially it seems that the SKILL API has been created to allow them to be registered, but very little there for introspection.

    You should contact customer support to request this (since the capabilities exist in C++, as they're needed for the UI, it is feasible for a SKILL API to be added on top).

    Regards,

    Andrew.
