Can someone know command-like rename $oldname $newname in Encounter

magicflute

i can not find the command that rename  hier inst name  in db command. can someone tell me ?

  • i searched all of db command ,but i can find nothing to achieve the function.  can someone also give me a script ?

  • The only time module names are modified in Encounter is during uniquification with uniquifyNetlist. Outside of this you'll have to manually change the name in the Verilog.

  •  Have you tried changeInstName command?

    This changes only the leaf level instance name, that is, if you have an instance A/B/C (where C is an instance defined in module B, which is instantiated in module A ) and you want to change the name of C, you have to execute

     

    changeInstName -instName A/B/C -newBaseName A/B/CNew

     

    Note : The changeInstName command does not change the path of hierarchy

     

    The only way to change the hierarchy instance name is 

    1. unFlatten <HierModule>

    2. changeInstName -instName <HierModuleName> -newBaseName <newHierModuleName>

    3. flatten the design

     

    Please try it and let me know if it works for you.
