SEGMBKRDS(3)						      RDS PHYSICAL FUNCTIONS						      SEGMBKRDS(3)

NAME

       segmbkrds - adds to RDS figure a segment from a MBK figure

ORIGIN

       This  software  belongs	to  the  ALLIANCE CAD SYSTEM developed by the ASIM team at LIP6 laboratory of Universite Pierre et Marie CURIE, in
       Paris, France.

SYNOPSYS

       #include "rfmnnn.h"
	rdsrec_list *segmbkrds( Figure, Segment, Lynx )
	   rdsfig_list *Figure;
	   phseg_list  *Segment;
	   char 	Lynx;

PARAMETER

       Figure		   The RDS figure which has to receive the converted segment.

       Segment		   MBK segment to convert to RDS rectangle.

       Lynx		   Flag used for the segment conversion. If the parameter Lynx is set to 0 then this is the normal conversion mode. If the
			   parameter Lynx is set to 1 then the rds structure generated permits to extract equipotentials rectangles.

DESCRIPTION

       The segmbkrds function converts and creates a RDS segment from a MBK segment. The segment is attached to the RDS figure in parameter of the
       segmbkrds function. See the rdsfig_list structure in librds.

RETURN VALUE

       Pointer to the newly created RDS segment.

ERRORS

       "Rds202: rdsalloc error, can't continue !"
	      it's impossible to allocate the memory size desired

EXAMPLE

	       #include "mphnnn.h"
	       #include "mutnnn.h"
	       #include "rdsnnn.h"
	       #include "rfmnnn.h"
	       #include "rtlnnn.h"
	       typedef struct UserStruct
		{
		  char *STRING;
		  void *USER1;
		} UserStruct;
	       main()
		 {
		   phfig_list  *MbkFigure;
		   rdsfig_list *RdsFigure;
		   rdsrec_list *Segment;
		   mbkenv();
		   rdsenv();
		   loadrdsparam();
		   RdsFigure =
		      addrdsfig ("core",sizeof ( UserStruct ) );
		   MbkFigure->PHSEG =
		      addphseg ( MbkFigure, ALU1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 12, "seg_alu1");
		   Segment = segmbkrds (RdsFigure, MbkFigure->PHSEG, 0);
		   viewrdsrec ( Segment );
		 }
