Inconsistent behavior of axlDBCloak?

migrg

Hi everyone,

I'm creating an array of vias using axlDBCloak. I realized that a number of my vias (seems like they are located in the same X coordinate) don't have a net associated. My code works as follows:

via_id=mrCreateViaPadstack() -> this function creates the padstack, this works fine all the time
axlDBCloak( 'mrCreateAllViasCloak(via_id))

procedure( mrCreateAllViasCloak(via_id)
...
...
axlDBCreateVia(via_id, -1497.7:10647.9, "VSS")
...

When I don't run axlDBCloak and just use the axlDBCreateVia command separately in the skill terminal everything works well. I am creating several hundreds of vias with axlDBCloak. Is there any limitation in this function? is it possible that it will 'misbehave' if it has to execute too many database accesses?

Help appreciated! Thanks!

    the problem went away by making several 'smaller' calls to axlDBCloak instead. There is some bug with this function and the number of transactions it can queue that is not documented.
