Get blockage and routing layers

How do you get the list of blockage/routing layers listed in the palette Objects?

    Hi,

    This is probably not the best way to do it but it should do the job:

    (setof lp (techGetTechFile (geGetEditCellView))->lps lp->purpose=="blockage")~>name

    Cheers,

    Aurélien

    Aurélien,

    That is, I believe, how the palette picks them. The LPP info is strictly only needed so that a packet can be defined for the blockage (the blockage objects themselves are not layer-purpose-pairs), but the presence of the LPP is enough for them to show up in the palette. The same is true of the Create->P&R Objects->Blockage, although this can be filtered based on the function of the layer in the tech file.
