DesignSync relavent functions in Cadence

Derek WANG

Hi All

I am not sure whether I post this issue at the right place, but I almost find nothing via google about the DesignSync relavent functions in Cadence. I hope someone here may give me a hint.

the story behind is that:

I try to write a skill script to record the current version of each schematic through the hierarchy. Unfortunately, I do not find the corresponding document either in DesignSync or Cadence.

by looking at the log file of Cadence, I notice that designSync would create a form named "dssViewVHForm". I can change the setup for such form follow the syntax of SKILL, like: dssViewVHForm->libName->value = "myLib". by doing this, I can point the cellview I want to visit. And when I close such Form via "hiFormDone(dssViewVHForm)", a popup window would show the version history of such cellview. Of course, the current version is shown. but this is not what I want.

On the other hand, through trying this, I think there is a callback function has been defined and linked with "dssViewVHForm", but I do not know what it is. And probably what I want might be a function which has been used in the callback function to retrieve the "current version" of specified cellview. Is there a way to log all the used functions when I execute "hiFormDone(dssViewVHForm)", then probably I can find the fucntion I need.

and it would be perfect if someone can tell which function is used to retrieve the current version of specified cellview. I assume it may look like: dssCurrentVersion(myLib myCell myView) => f_versionNumber.

Best Regards

Yi

    Hi All

    I do not know how, but I open one of the DesSync functions (), and luckily find the folder which contains all the functions.

    In my server, the function folder is:

    /home/cadgrp/hbg/ictools/designsync/V6R2013X/cds/skill.

    by looking the code, I take part of them to form the function I want.

    the porpers of the CCScurrentVersion() is to return the design version of given cellview.

    the code is taken from the "dssViewGUI.il" and "ddsRevCntl.il" file.

    this code cannot work alone, it still depends on some other designsync functions.

    I will optimize this function when I have time later on.

    below is the code:

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    procedure(
        CCSviewCurrentVersion(libName cellName viewName)     
        let((all lastVersions branch descendants lastBranches maxTag mode curVersion

        );local variables
        all = nil
        lastVersions = nil
           branch = ""
           descendants = nil
           lastBranches = nil
        maxTags = "all"
        mode = "W"
        
        
           when(dssCheckViewVerHistArgs(
                        libName cellName viewName "" nil
                        all branch lastVersions lastBranches descendants
                        maxTags mode
                    )

                    ;-------------------------------------------------------
                    ; Now call the internal processing routine.
                    ;-------------------------------------------------------
                curVersion =CCSreportVHistory(libName cellName viewName dssVHBuildCmdOptions( all branch lastVersions lastBranches descendants maxTags mode )                   
             );CCSreportVHistory            
                
                ) ; when
            
            curVersion
        ) ; let
        
        
    )

    procedure(
        CCSreportVHistory(
            libName cellName viewName @optional opts memberVault
        )

        let((path ddObj data isModule curVersion)
        
            if(!cellName || (ddObj = ddGetObj(libName cellName viewName)) then
                path = if(cellName dssGetddCV(ddObj) libName)
                unless(dssModsFindDirModules(path)
                    memberVault = nil
                )
                isModule = dssFindModule(path)
            data =
                    dssCmd(
                        "dssVhistory %s %L %s %s %L"
                        dssWrapName(path) opts if(memberVault "1" "0")
                        if(isModule "1" "0")
                        if(boundp('dssVhistoryOptions) dssVhistoryOptions "")
                        ?dssData t
                    )   
                     
        )
        
        curVersion = nth(2, parseString(car(data) " "))
        curVersion = substring(curVersion 1 strlen(curVersion)-1)
        curVersion
        ) ; let
        
    )
