Changing library references for all the cells using skill.

The function you want is ccpRenameReferenceLib. This will work even if the views are not OA databases (so works with Maestro views etc too), and is a simple interface. The documentation doesn't make the argument types particularly clear (I've fed back that this needs improving), but the usage would be:

origSpec=gdmCreateSpec("originalRefLib" nil nil nil "LibraryUNIX")
newSpec=gdmCreateSpec("newRefLib" nil nil nil "LibraryUNIX")
libToUpdate=gdmCreateSpec("mylib" nil nil nil "LibraryUNIX")
updateSpecList=gdmCreateSpecList()
gdmAddSpecToSpecList(libToUpdate updateSpecList)
ccpRenameReferenceLib(origSpec newSpec updateSpecList)

(note, I didn't test this - but I believe this should do the job).

Hi Andrew,

Your suggestion worked really well.. Clean and Simple

But,

I am following the following article:

https://support.cadence.com/apex/ArticleAttachmentPortal?id=a1Od0000000naw9EAA

I want to achieve this using batch mode but I realised that since the being used here is leRemasterInstances it won't work in batch mode.

Do you know any db equivalent function to this which can do the job being done in the article ?

Thanks.

I'm not sure why you would use that article's approach when the ccpRenameReferenceLib is simpler still (and there's cdsCopyShell if you want to run that code batch), but there's no direct equivalent of leRemasterInstances. You would iterate over cv~>instHeaders and then either use dbSetInstHeaderMasterName() to change the library or dbRemasterInstHeader (that requires opening the cellView you're replacing with though, so I suspect dbSetInstHeaderMasterName() would be simpler).
