Looping folders fail after x numbers of entries ???

Romme

Hello dear Friends.

  We have some skill tools that change properties on footprints and other files. We can do this perfectly on 1 file, 10 files and so on up. But it fails and kills Allegro with error messages after eg 250 footprints. Is there a "undocumented counter" for forci Allegro to be "rebooted".

 

  Imagine a folder of 1500 footprints, for which You need changing a properties in each footprint. It is rather anoiying to experience that one have to do this in 6 - 8 tasks, due to Allegro chrashes after 250 runs.

 

  Anyone who have any clues on why ?

  • Hello Chris.

     

      That is not the way i do open the footprint, i use axlOpenDesign() and axlKillDesign() from this i do not know if there is a more "deep" way to "reset" the allegro. Though i haven tryed the GC() command yet due to the warnings.

     

      Anyone out there who knows what can go wrong with use of GC(), exept that windows dies and needs reinstallation :-).
