Capture quit unexpectedly after delete DboGlobal instances in page by TCL script DeleteGlobal

seanhung365

Hello,

I tried using TCL to delete some DboGlobal instances which matches a criteria.

However, after I delete it by DboPage function DboGlobal, the schematic seems to have some invisible error which will lead Capture quit unexpectedly under some operations.

set lStatus [DboState]
set lNullObj NULL
set pPage [GetActivePage]
set lGlobalsToDel [list]
set lGlobalIter [$pPage NewGlobalsIter $lStatus]
set lGlobalInst [$lGlobalIter NextGlobal $lStatus]
while {$lGlobalInst!=$lNullObj} {
# screen out wire matched some criteria, then add to array for later delete
lappend lGlobalsToDel $lGlobalInst
set lGlobalInst [$lGlobalIter NextGlobal $lStatus]
}
delete_DboPageGlobalsIter $lGlobalIter

foreach lGlobal $lGlobalsToDel {
$pPage DeleteGlobal $lGlobal
#catch {DboTclHelper_sEvalPage $pPage}
#catch {ZoomRedraw}
}

    Hi @Seanhung365,

    Please find the below modifed tcl which will delete the global object form the active page.

    I added the below line:

    # 1.set GlobalItemId [$lGlobalInst GetId $lStatus]
    # 2.SelectObjectById $lGlobal
    # 3.Menu "Edit::Delete"
    # 4.Menu "File::Save"

    set lStatus [DboState]
    set lNullObj NULL
    set pPage [GetActivePage]
    set lGlobalsToDel [list]
    set lGlobalIter [$pPage NewGlobalsIter $lStatus]
    set lGlobalInst [$lGlobalIter NextGlobal $lStatus]
    while {$lGlobalInst!=$lNullObj} {
    # screen out wire matched some criteria, then add to array for later delete
    set GlobalItemId [$lGlobalInst GetId $lStatus]
    lappend lGlobalsToDel $GlobalItemId

    set lGlobalInst [$lGlobalIter NextGlobal $lStatus]
    }
    delete_DboPageGlobalsIter $lGlobalIter

    UnSelectAll

    foreach lGlobal $lGlobalsToDel {

    SelectObjectById $lGlobal
    # $pPage DeleteGlobal $lGlobal
    # catch {DboTclHelper_sEvalPage $pPage}
    # catch {ZoomRedraw}

    }
    Menu "Edit::Delete"
    Menu "File::Save"
