Where is that property ?

Romme

Hello dear friends.

  Im having a problem with someproperties in footprints created by some colleagues loooong time ago.

  In the footprint there was created a property called Revision as string containing the date of creation. Now we have done a mayor cleanup and entered footrpints in a database with Revision as integer fourthrunning numbered. As string and integer is much different :-), we cannot load netlist into boards with old symbols.

  To solve the problem we need to do a skill that runs through the footprint library and "testing" all footprints for a property called Revision, and copy these files to a sub folder.

  Copying files and walking through the directory is not a problem, the problem is to find a property that i do not know where is attached.

  any clues anyone ?

Sincerely
  Klavs Rommedahl.

    Hi Klavs

    I would say that if you open a .dra file and run x=axlDBGetDesign() then x->prop->?? should show you revision if it exists.

    If not, please send me a sample .dra file and I'll see what I can do.

    Best regards
