Is there a way to get all parts connected to a flat-net?

Jadystone

I am trying to use TCL to check all capcitors voltage whether is below permitting voltage. So I first get a flatnet which net name gives me the voltage information such as VCC3.3. Then I iterate all capcitors connected to the flatnet and check the description of the capcitor to get rating voltage. I compare the net allowing voltage with the rating voltage from capcitor. If they are not matching, I print a warnig out

    Please find the below code:

    It will check the property value Rated Voltage and pin connected wire name if both different value, then it will report pinname. 

    set object [GetSelectedObjects]
    set lPropCString [DboTclHelper_sMakeCString "Rated Voltage"]
    set lPartRefCString [DboTclHelper_sMakeCString "Part Reference"]
    set lPropValCString [DboTclHelper_sMakeCString ]
    set lPartRefValCString [DboTclHelper_sMakeCString ]
    set lPinCString [DboTclHelper_sMakeCString ]
    set lWireCString [DboTclHelper_sMakeCString ]
    set lNetCString [DboTclHelper_sMakeCString ]
    set lState [$object GetEffectivePropStringValue $lPropCString $lPropValCString]
    set lState [$object GetEffectivePropStringValue $lPartRefCString $lPartRefValCString]
    set lVoltage "[DboTclHelper_sGetConstCharPtr $lPropValCString]"
    set lPartRef "[DboTclHelper_sGetConstCharPtr $lPartRefValCString]"
    set lNullObj NULL
    set lStatus [DboState]
    set lIter [$object NewPinsIter $lStatus]
    #get the first pin of the part
    set lPin [$lIter NextPin $lStatus]
    while {$lPin !=$lNullObj } {

    $lPin GetPinName $lPinCString
    set lPinName [DboTclHelper_sGetConstCharPtr $lPinCString]
    set lWire [$lPin GetWire $lStatus]
    set lNet [$lPin GetNet $lStatus]

    if {$lWire != $lNullObj || $lNet != $lNullObj} {
    $lWire GetNetName $lWireCString
    # $lWire GetNetName $lNetCString
    set lWireName [DboTclHelper_sGetConstCharPtr $lWireCString]
    if {$lWireName != $lVoltage } {

    puts "Comp with Refdes=$lPartRef has pin $lPinName has connected to Net $lWireName but volatge rating of comp is $lVoltage"
    }

    }

    #get the next pin of the part
    set lPin [$lIter NextPin $lStatus]
    }
    delete_DboPartInstPinsIter $lIter

    Hope it helps!
