Generating Schematic pin list

LakshmanQual

Hi Team, I am generating the pin list from schematic as

cv=geGetEditCellView()
pins=cv~>terminals~>name .

If any bus is input or output, its coming directly as a bus only like Q<3:0>. But i want them as individual pins like Q<0> Q<1> Q<2> Q<3>.

There are 10's of buses in schematic, so i want all of them to come as individual pins.

Is there any way to generate them as individual pins? I want them to compare with layout pins?

    Are you asking how to create pins on the schematic, or just how to get a list of the member names? I think it's the latter you're asking for, then:

    dbProduceMemName("Q<3:0>")

    which outputs:

    ("Q<3>" "Q<2>" "Q<1>" "Q<0>")

    Regards,

    Andrew

    Hi Andrew, thanks for the reply. Sorry that the question was not clear.  I want to list the schematic pins. But using the general code, the pins were coming as bus directly.  But those pins should be separated in my list to compare them with layout pins. With the piece of code you had given, i ran that code using foreach loop on entire list which includes buses. Now my final aim reached because of your idea of "dbProduceMemName". Thank you Andrew!!!
