CDL out: Retrieve connection pair list from custom netlistProcedure

Hi all,

I am trying to CDL out a schematic with custom primitive devices. Each one of them has different characteristics/parameters that influence the desired netlist, so I want to create custom netlist procedures for each one of them. Thus, a ansCdlHnlPrintInst-based approach will not work for all the different scenarios.

Also, it would be useful to have a connection pair list (similar to the argument of ansCdlPrintConnections), because the devices have bus ports and ansCdlPrintConnections splits the busses to separate signal pairs, while a command like "hnlCurrentInst~>conns" returns them in bus form.

Is there an internal way to produce the connection pair list from the bus form? I cannot find a procedure that performs this task in documentation.

Thanks!
Georgios
