How to get the cellviews hierachy

wenckey

In Virtuoso, if I have the target cell name "target", top cell name "top", lib name "mylib", view name "layout". How can I get the hierachy path for the "target" from "top"?

Like hierachy path: top->cellA->cellB->target

    Hi,

    I think either geGetInstHierPath() or geGetInstHier() might give you what you want?

    Best regards,

    Lawrence.

    geGetInstHierPath() and geGetInstHier() need to open a cell view and descend into or EIP in a cellview. It will not report the hier path if another cell contain the target cell.

    Also thanks for your response Slight smile
