How to make a iteration of all the VIAs in SOC Encounter database?

archive
archive over 17 years ago

Hi, all:

I am Roc Sun. Recently, I got a few problems.

One is how can I iterate all the via instances in SoC Encounter. I can find the command 'dbViaCellName' or something, but I can not find the way to get via instances. As you know, in SoC52, it 'split via' utility is not working. So, I want write my own version using database command.

The other is that, how can I get all the drc box coordinates, I mean the white boxes after we made a DRC check in SOC Encounter. I want to write this script in db commands.

Best Regard!

    Bob:

    I have carefully studied your sample script.

    I just catch 2 questions:

    1. Pls use the 'dbIsRouteVia' instead of 'dbIsStripBoxVia', since the 'dbIsStripBoxVia' command will always return value 1 in SOCE 52.
    2. ‘dbCreateVia $net [dbGetViaCellByName via1]’, how do one known the viacell 'via1' is what he or she wants, I think we should create a dumb via first use setEditVia and editAddVia, then we can get a new viaCell......then use this cell.

    I will go further on this script and find a final answer. Many thanks to your GREAT help!
