Launching executable Program through SKILL

ichliebedich
ichliebedich over 5 years ago

Hi all,

I'd like to launch programs through SKILL code on PCB environment

for example, if I want to launch the padstack, with which function can I launch the program padstack.exe?

(the path is, C:\Cadence\SPB_17.2\tools\bin\padstack_editor.exe )

regards,
