Hi

I've got a design that have lots of match groups defined, however running axlDBGetDesign()->matchgroup result in nil as the result.

Have anyone got it working?

Best regards

    Hi Venkata

    I found the problem. I started out opening the board in Allegro L that don't have match group constraints and used change editor to go to XL - that did not work. However starting XL from scratch did the trick.

    I'll report this in an SR to Cadence

    Best regards

    Hi

    Now that I got that working, do you then know if it is possible to get the status of a match group (like running Analyze in Constraint Manager)?

    Best regards
