finding value es from CM in SKILL

archive

I am writing an Allegro SKILL program that needs to ignore power nets.  So I first coded it to look for the VOLTAGE property on a net and that worked fine.  Then I specified the VOLTAGE property using the Constraint Manager and now I can't find the VOLTAGE setting in the design in SKILL.   Voltage is "General Property" and can't be put into an ECSET so I don't think the various Ecset SKILL functions will work.

Any thoughts about how to get information from the "General Properties" section of the Constraint Manager?  Or get them back into the design so they are really properties I can find the old way.

  • Try adding the voltage property to the net(s) instead of adding them as part of an ECSet.
    Open the General Properties worksheet in the Nets folder.
    You may then use some skill to find the VOLTAGE properties.
    For example something like

    designnets = axlDBGetDesign() ->nets
    ignorednets = '()
    count = 0
    foreach(xx designnets
       mynet = nth(count++ designnets)
       netprops = mynet -> prop -> ??
       count1 = 0
       if(netprops != nil
          then
          foreach(xx netprops
             pmember = nth(count1++ netprops)
             if(pmember == "VOLTAGE"
                then
                ignorenet = 1
             ); end if
          ); end foreach
       ); end if
       if(ignorenet == 1
          then
          ignorednets = cons(mynet ignorednets)
       ); end if
    ); end foreach
