DIVA ivDRC() return message

Hi,

I am using ivDRC() in my SKILL code. The return code (t or nil) of ivDRC() will indicate the execution status of the DRC.

Is there any way for me to change it to indicate if DRC violation exists?

Regards,

    You could just check to see if any error markers were produced:

    procedure(CCFanyDivaDRCErrs(@optional (cv geGetEditCellView()))
      let((errLP)
        errLP=car(exists(LP cv~>lpps LP~>layerName=="marker" && LP~>purpose=="error"))
        setof(shape errLP~>shapes shape~>drcWhy)
      )
    )

    This returns either a list of the error markers (which could be treated as "true" in any conditional check you make) or nil if there were no errors.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
