axlDBCreateSymDefSkeleton

archive

I need to use DefSkeletion in a skill code to create a SymDef
I have used DefSkeletion in the "format" option before and it works great
however using the "package" option, I am not sure if I have the defstruct fro the pins correct.
when I run my code it does not return a SymdefDB
any ideas please let me know
thanks

pins = list( make_axlPinData( ?number "1", ?padstack "10S", ?origin -10:0 ?rotation 0 )
                   make_axlPinData( ?number "2", ?padstack "10S", ?origin  10:0 ?rotation 0 )
           );end-list

sym_id = axlDBCreateSymDefSkeleton( list( package "package" ) bBox pins )

symbolDB = car( axlDBCreateSymbolSkeleton( ref_des XY nil 0 nil ))

  • Hi,

    Everything is OK apart from the last line.
    You appear to be trying to add a symbol with a reference desiginator. That won't work like that.
    Try the following:
    symbolDB = car(axlDBCreateSymbol(list(package, "package"), XY)
    You won't easily be able to create a symbol with a reference designator - although it should be possible.
    I think you might have to use axlDBCreateConceptComponent (good luck!) or create a Device file and use axlDBCreateComponent.

    Cheers, Dave
