encounter > verifyGeometry -noOffMGrid  -report  TSI.geom.rpt

I restart encounter, is there a way to enable me to load the violation report file: TSI.geom.rpt to the current encounter session ?

  • Unfortunately, there isn't a way to load the .rpt file generated by verifyGeometry in a new session. However, there is a way to get the markers verifyGeometry produces loaded into a new Encounter session:

    verifyGeometry -noOffMGrid -report TSI.geom.rpt
    saveDrc TSI.marker


    loadDrc TSI.marker

    Note also that when you do a saveDesign, the markers are written off to a ".marker.gz" file which are automatically loaded upon restoreDesign. This .marker.gz file could also be read in using "loadDrc".

    I realize this can be confusing and it's caught me in the past as well. I think the reason for this is that it's faster for Encounter to parse large marker files given the concise nature of the marker file format. So there's the more readable report written by verifyGeometry and the more computer-friendly version written/read by saveDrc/loadDrc. The case where this can bite you is if you forget to save the markers (either by saveDesign or saveDrc). Hopefully with this information you can achieve what you're looking to do- please do post a follow-up if this doesn't address your needs.

    Thanks,
    Bob
