drdCompactObjects from batch?

skilly

Hello everybody,

I require assistance in getting the drd compaction algorithm to work. If I call in CIW the drdCompactObjects() function, the following error occurres:

drdCompactObjects('left list(rod1~>dbId rod2~>dbId))
*WARNING* This command cannot be used in VLS-L.
nil

Does anybody know how to call it? When I have a layout-XL window open, this function works as expected.

This is also not working:

lxRunCmdInXL(cv 'drdCompactObjects ?cmdArgs list('left list(rod1~>dbId rod2~>dbId)))
*WARNING* (LX-2112): The layout cellview 'primitives_test/nmos_test/layout' has no corresponding connectivity reference specified.
To specify a connectivity reference for the layout, use the SKILL procedure
'lxSetConnRef' and then rerun the command.
nil

Any help is really appriciated.

BR

    Looks as if you may genuinely need to be in VLS XL for this to work. Simply calling lxSetConnRef and then using lxRunCmdInXL is not enough.

    I suggest you contact customer support.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
