Preferred ECO procedure.

archive
archive over 17 years ago

Hi all!
I am trying to figure out how to do something that should be simple, but is confusing me. What I want to do is take a released schematic and add some components to the design, then obtain some sort of output that shows the difference between the original schematic and the new schematic. So, basically, a running list of changes for that particular schematic.

Has anyone done this before? I browsed the docs but it looks like the design differences and preview tools are geared toward verifying changes between schematic/pcb.

Thanks in advance...

    The ECO.txt file will show you the differences. It's the ECO report file listing all the changes made to the design, once you read in the new netlist files.

    Should be explanitory.
