Running VPCD from command line?

Hi,

Since the menu option for VPCD has been removed in IC614, I want to use VPCD from command line but I can not generate a cell which I have synthesized. When running from the dropdown menu in IC, the Configuration option lets you choose which library the generated cell is created in (_psmsChooseLibForm->_psmsLibNameStrField->value = "lab2" is what shows up in virtuoso), how can I set this via the command line? vpcd -h does not give any clue, nor do the files in ~/.vpcm_datdir.

Thanks,

Tarek

    Hi Tarek,

    My recommendation would be to flatten the layout produced by VPCD in IC613/MMSIM71 and then you'll no longer have a dependency on the VPCD code.

    Regards,

    Andrew
