dbid:removed after first iteration

Henry Monro

Hi,

Below attached is the code on which I am working and its working for the first iteration only then it removes the DBIDs.

My motive is to create void on Selected vias using the DRC and the tool should create void on all selected vias. Have used axlDBRefreshId(nil) also but it didnt worked for me, maybe I didnt place the command on correct line of code.

Please help in this regard.

Thanks


count=0
axlSetFindFilter(?enabled list("noall") ?onButtons list("noall"))

axlSetFindFilter( ?enabled '("alltypes") ?onButtons "DRCS")
axlSelect(?prompt "\nSelect DRCS from the layout")

drcs=axlGetSelSet()

length_l_drcs=length(drcs)

println("length_l_drcs")
println(length_l_drcs)

count=0

foreach(drc, drcs

if(drc->waived==nil && drc->name== "Drill Hole to Shape Same Net Spacing" then

drc_layer = drc->layer
drc_expected = drc->expected

drc_expected = parseString(drc_expected " ")
drc_expected = car(drc_expected)

drc_expected = atof(drc_expected)

drc_expected = (drc_expected+5)

l_violations=drc->violations

length_l_violations=length(l_violations)

;println("length_l_violations")
;println(length_l_violations)

if(length_l_violations <= 1 || length_l_violations >= 3 then
axlUIConfirm("Not a correct DRC")
)

foreach(violation l_violations
if(violation->objType=="pin" || violation->objType=="via" then
pv1 = violation
)
if(violation->objType=="shape" then
shape1 = violation
)
)

l_poly_shape = axlPolyFromDB(shape1)
voidPolys = nil

l_location=list(pv1->xy, drc_expected)
rpath = axlPathStartCircle(l_location, 0.0)
poly_circle = car(axlPolyFromDB(rpath))
voidPolys = cons(poly_circle, voidPolys)


openShape = axlDBOpenShape(shape1->shapeBoundary)

foreach(poly, voidPolys
axlDBCreateVoid(openShape, poly)
)

shape1 = car(axlDBCreateCloseShape(openShape))
axlShapeDynamicUpdate(shape1 t)

)

count++
println(drc)

)

    The dbids are changed the instant you process the first shape. To avoid this you need to "cache" the changes for each shape.

    Try this:

    count=0
    drcs = nil
    axlSetFindFilter(?enabled list("noall") ?onButtons list("noall"))
    axlSetFindFilter( ?enabled '("alltypes") ?onButtons "DRCS")
    mypopup = axlUIPopupDefine(nil, list(list("Done" 'axlFinishEnterFun), list("Cancel" 'axlCancelEnterFun)))
    axlUIPopupSet(mypopup)
    while(axlSelect(?prompt "Select DRCS from the layout")
    drc = car(axlGetSelSet())
    ;when(drc->name == "Blind/Buried Via to Shape Same Net Spacing" && length(drc->violations) == 2
    when(drc->name == "Drill Hole to Shape Same Net Spacing" && length(drc->violations) == 2
    drcs=cons(drc, drcs)
    )
    )
    axlClearSelSet()
    printf("length_l_drcs: %d\n", length(drcs))
    shapeList = nil
    foreach(drc, drcs
    unless(drc->waived
    shape = car(setof(violation, drc->violations, violation->objType=="shape"))
    shapeList = cons(list(shape, drc), shapeList)
    println(drc)
    )
    )
    count=0
    foreach(shape, unique(mapcar('car, shapeList))
    voidPolys = nil
    foreach(item, setof(item, shapeList, car(item) == shape); Get the list of drcs to this shape
    drc = cadr(item)
    pv = car(setof(violation, drc->violations, violation->objType=="pin" || violation->objType=="via"))
    drc_clearance = axlMKS2UU(drc->expected) + axlMKSConvert(5, "mils")
    l_location=list(pv->xy, drc_clearance)
    rpath = axlPathStartCircle(l_location, 0.0)
    poly_circle = car(axlPolyFromDB(rpath))
    voidPolys = cons(poly_circle, voidPolys)
    )
    openShape = axlDBOpenShape(shape->shapeBoundary)
    foreach(voidPoly, voidPolys
    axlDBCreateVoid(openShape, voidPoly)
    count++
    )
    shape = car(axlDBCreateCloseShape(openShape))
    axlShapeDynamicUpdate(shape t)
    )
    count

    Still just making the first void only. Then removing the DBIDs

    Oh yes. I had it working then made the same mistake  of expecting the drc dbids to not be changed.

    Try this:

    count=0
    drcs = nil
    axlSetFindFilter(?enabled list("noall") ?onButtons list("noall"))
    axlSetFindFilter( ?enabled '("alltypes") ?onButtons "DRCS")
    mypopup = axlUIPopupDefine(nil, list(list("Done" 'axlFinishEnterFun), list("Cancel" 'axlCancelEnterFun)))
    axlUIPopupSet(mypopup)
    while(axlSelect(?prompt "Select DRCS from the layout")
    drc = car(axlGetSelSet())
    ;when(drc->name == "Blind/Buried Via to Shape Same Net Spacing" && length(drc->violations) == 2
    when(drc->name == "Drill Hole to Shape Same Net Spacing" && length(drc->violations) == 2
    drcs=cons(drc, drcs)
    )
    )
    axlClearSelSet()
    printf("length_l_drcs: %d\n", length(drcs))
    shapeList = nil
    foreach(drc, drcs
    unless(drc->waived
    pv = car(setof(violation, drc->violations, violation->objType=="pin" || violation->objType=="via"))
    shape = car(setof(violation, drc->violations, violation->objType=="shape"))
    shapeList = cons(list(shape, pv, drc ->expected), shapeList)
    println(drc)
    )
    )
    count=0
    foreach(shape, unique(mapcar('car, shapeList))
    voidPolys = nil
    foreach(item, setof(item, shapeList, car(item) == shape); Get the list of drcs to this shape
    pv = cadr(item)
    drc_clearance = axlMKS2UU(caddr(item)) + axlMKSConvert(5, "mils")
    l_location=list(pv->xy, drc_clearance)
    rpath = axlPathStartCircle(l_location, 0.0)
    poly_circle = car(axlPolyFromDB(rpath))
    voidPolys = cons(poly_circle, voidPolys)
    )
    openShape = axlDBOpenShape(shape->shapeBoundary)
    foreach(voidPoly, voidPolys
    axlDBCreateVoid(openShape, voidPoly)
    count++
    )
    shape = car(axlDBCreateCloseShape(openShape))
    axlShapeDynamicUpdate(shape t)
    )
    count

    I slept on it and I think this has more chance of working:

    count=0
    drcs = nil
    axlSetFindFilter(?enabled list("noall") ?onButtons list("noall"))
    axlSetFindFilter( ?enabled '("alltypes") ?onButtons "DRCS")
    mypopup = axlUIPopupDefine(nil, list(list("Done" 'axlFinishEnterFun), list("Cancel" 'axlCancelEnterFun)))
    axlUIPopupSet(mypopup)
    while(axlSelect(?prompt "Select DRCS from the layout")
    drc = car(axlGetSelSet())
    when(drc->name == "Drill Hole to Shape Same Net Spacing" && length(drc->violations) == 2
    drcs=cons(drc, drcs)
    )
    )
    axlClearSelSet()
    printf("length_l_drcs: %d\n", length(drcs))
    shapeList = nil
    foreach(drc, drcs
    unless(drc->waived
    pvXY = car(setof(violation, drc->violations, violation->objType=="pin" || violation->objType=="via")) ->xy
    drc_clearance = axlMKS2UU(drc ->expected) + axlMKSConvert(5, "mils")
    l_location=list(pvXY, drc_clearance)
    shape = car(setof(violation, drc->violations, violation->objType=="shape"))
    shapeList = cons(list(shape, l_location), shapeList)
    println(drc)
    )
    )
    count=0
    foreach(shape, unique(mapcar('car, shapeList))
    voidPolys = nil
    foreach(item, setof(item, shapeList, car(item) == shape); Get the list of drcs to this shape
    l_location = cadr(item)
    rpath = axlPathStartCircle(l_location, 0.0)
    poly_circle = car(axlPolyFromDB(rpath))
    voidPolys = cons(poly_circle, voidPolys)
    )
    openShape = axlDBOpenShape(shape->shapeBoundary)
    foreach(voidPoly, voidPolys
    axlDBCreateVoid(openShape, voidPoly)
    count++
    )
    shape = car(axlDBCreateCloseShape(openShape))
    axlShapeDynamicUpdate(shape t)
    )
    count

    Does this fix it:

    count=0
    drcs = nil
    axlSetFindFilter(?enabled list("noall") ?onButtons list("noall"))
    axlSetFindFilter( ?enabled '("alltypes") ?onButtons "DRCS")
    mypopup = axlUIPopupDefine(nil, list(list("Done" 'axlFinishEnterFun), list("Cancel" 'axlCancelEnterFun)))
    axlUIPopupSet(mypopup)
    while(axlSelect(?prompt "Select DRCS from the layout")
    drc = car(axlGetSelSet())
    when(drc->name == "Drill Hole to Shape Same Net Spacing" && length(drc->violations) == 2
    drcs=cons(drc, drcs)
    )
    )
    axlClearSelSet()
    printf("length_l_drcs: %d\n", length(drcs))
    shapeList = nil
    foreach(drc, drcs
    unless(drc->waived
    pvXY = car(setof(violation, drc->violations, violation->objType=="pin" || violation->objType=="via")) ->xy
    drc_clearance = axlMKS2UU(drc ->expected) || 0 + axlMKSConvert(5, "mils")
    l_location=list(pvXY, drc_clearance)
    shape = car(setof(violation, drc->violations, violation->objType=="shape"))
    shapeList = cons(list(shape, l_location), shapeList)
    println(drc)
    )
    )
    count=0
    foreach(shape, unique(mapcar('car, shapeList))
    voidPolys = nil
    foreach(item, setof(item, shapeList, car(item) == shape); Get the list of drcs to this shape
    l_location = cadr(item)
    rpath = axlPathStartCircle(l_location, 0.0)
    poly_circle = car(axlPolyFromDB(rpath))
    voidPolys = cons(poly_circle, voidPolys)

    It now shows the warning for multiple shapes and I have to run the code separately for each shape which takes time.

    Below is the warning that arises:

    *WARNING* (axlDBOpenShape): Invalid database id argument - nil

    Below is the snap as how I have the case:

    I would be thankful if you can help in this regard

    I guess I should have tried this on a "real" design.

    Try this:

    count=0
    drcs = nil
    axlSetFindFilter(?enabled list("noall") ?onButtons list("noall"))
    axlSetFindFilter( ?enabled '("alltypes") ?onButtons "DRCS")
    mypopup = axlUIPopupDefine(nil, list(list("Done" 'axlFinishEnterFun), list("Cancel" 'axlCancelEnterFun)))
    axlUIPopupSet(mypopup)
    while(axlSelect(?prompt "Select DRCS from the layout")
    drc = car(axlGetSelSet())
    when(drc->name == "Drill Hole to Shape Same Net Spacing" && length(drc->violations) == 2
    drcs=cons(drc, drcs)
    )
    )
    axlClearSelSet()
    printf("length_l_drcs: %d\n", length(drcs))
    shapeList = nil
    foreach(drc, drcs
    unless(drc->waived
    pvXY = car(setof(violation, drc->violations, violation->objType=="pin" || violation->objType=="via")) ->xy
    drc_clearance = axlMKS2UU(drc ->expected) || 0 + axlMKSConvert(5, "mils")
    l_location=list(pvXY, drc_clearance)
    shape = car(setof(violation, drc->violations, violation->objType=="shape")) ->shapeBoundary
    shapeList = cons(list(shape, l_location), shapeList)
    println(drc)
    )
    )
    count=0
    foreach(shape, unique(mapcar('car, shapeList))
    voidPolys = nil
    foreach(item, setof(item, shapeList, car(item) == shape); Get the list of drcs to this shape
    l_location = cadr(item)
    rpath = axlPathStartCircle(l_location, 0.0)
    poly_circle = car(axlPolyFromDB(rpath))
    voidPolys = cons(poly_circle, voidPolys)
    )
    openShape = axlDBOpenShape(shape)
    foreach(voidPoly, voidPolys
    axlDBCreateVoid(openShape, voidPoly)
