schematic rules checks setup question

wenckey
wenckey over 4 years ago

1) How to setup two scenarios to one check item,

For example under Name check, there is a Pin Name Syntax, I want to set "warning" to Pin name start with number, I will do:

envSetVal("schematic" "srcTermNameSyntax" 'cyclic "warning")
envSetVal("schematic" "srcTermNameExpr" 'string "^[0-9]")

I also want to set "error" to pin name end with _:

envSetVal("schematic" "srcTermNameSyntax" 'cyclic "error")
envSetVal("schematic" "srcTermNameExpr" 'string "_$")

But I can not set both since the latest setting will overwrite the previous one

2) How to use regular expression in the setting to define two situation

Like the example above, I want to set both start with number and end with "_" as the check rules, I tried use "|" but not working:

envSetVal("schematic" "srcTermNameExpr" 'string "^[0-9]|_$")

Thanks

    It seems to be regular expression day today! Anyway, this is not possible currently as the checker uses Posix-2 Basic Regular Expression syntax which does not support a way to have alternatives like this.

    You should contact customer support and request this (there are two somewhat related CCRs, 823928 and 845503, which you should mention as this will probably be a duplicate of one or other of them).
