How to eradicate a net completely

AThomasL

I am writing some commands to delete nets and connect their instTerms to other nets.  deleteNet does not always delete the net and its wires.  If the net is connected to a top level port I know to use deleteModulePort - first, but if the net was connected to a lower level port in the original netlist hierarchy, how do I trace through hInst/hNet/hTerm to really delete the net and its possible hierarchical port connections?  Some of my nets are busses and I'll be deleting all members of that bus.  I did figure out that editDelete -net will at least get rid of my wires, but the verification guys don't like when I write a flat Verilog netlist that has wire statements for nets that no longer exist and connect to nothing.

    Disconnects dangling nets from ports in the whole design, from the top level to the bottom level.

    BUT may not work on partialy deleted bus structures.

    OR give the verification guys a "blue" pill : )
