Procedure Error Definitiion - SKILL Pcell

Esteban Saavedra

Hi All, 

I'm working with pcell SKILL coding, and I'm defining some procedures for a different tasks, on my environment everything works fine, but if some one else test the pcell it generates an error for undefined function

*WARNING* (DB-270002): ("eval" 0 t nil ("*Error* eval: undefined function" regularProcedure))
*WARNING* (DB-270003): Error kept in "errorDesc" property of the label "pcellEcalFailed" on layer/purpose "marker/error" in the submaster

I'm defining the procedures outside pcDefinePcell strucure.

Can some please help me with this issue?

Thank you.

Cordially,

Albert Esteban Saavedra Hernandez

  • Any additional functions you define will need to be loaded - only the body of the pcDefinePCell is stored within the cell view. The best thing to do is to load these auxiliary functions from a file called libInit.il within the library containing your PCell - that file is loaded the first time the library is accessed. 

    Do not call pcDefinePCell within this file, because that would attempt to redefine the PCell each time which doesn’t make sense and would very likely fail due to permissions or locking.
