Copy hierarchy with hierarchical rename

Hi Brian,

Yes, take a look at Solution Article 11807102, I think it does what you are asking.

Lawrence, great thanks! This copies and renames every cell below a specified cellview. Though what I'm looking for is to copy and rename only a certain number of hiearchical levels. Could this be implemented into this code? ie say adding a stopLevel argument.

Hi Brian,

Not with that solution.  You could write something to traverse the hierarchy to a certain depth and perform the rename for each level (this could be very inefficient!) - I think you would need to do the rename using the ccp* functions...

Bare bones structure, something like this:

procedure( CCFtraverseHierSch( cv @optional (level 0) (maxDepth 32)) 
  when(level < maxDepth
    foreach(ih cv->instHeaders
      if( cview =  dbGetAnyInstSwitchMaster(car(ih~>instances) "schematic") then
        CCFtraverseHierSch(cview level+1 maxDepth)
      else
        ;; do the rename for this cell (instHeader) updating all instances of it
        ;; write this piece with ccpRename, based on the ccpCopy solution example
      ); if
    ); foreach
  ); when
); procedure CCFtraverseHierSch

Hopefully this gives you an idea?

Regards,

Lawrence.

Lawrence,

Thinking more on this, what I’m actually looking to do, rather than set a stop level, is to be able to input a hierarchical route to which to apply the cell rename to. Ie Xi1/Xi0/Xi5/Xi13/Xi8. Does that make sense? Could it be implemented? If so would you have any suggestions on how to do so?

Thanks,

Brian.
