instance renaming

Rajesh Vembu

How do we rename instances in encounter? I'm aware of changeInstName command, but it does not change the hierarchical name.

 

For example, if i have to change an instance name from a/b/c to x/y/z, how to accomplish it?

    Could you clarify whether you are truly looking to change the level of hierarchy at which the instance resides? In other words, if I specified the a/b hierarchial instance as a partition, and the design was partitioned after renaming a/b/c to x/y/z- would you expect to see x/y/z within the netlist written out for a/b?

    Thanks,
    Bob
