NAME
GENLIB_GET_REF_Y - retrieve the y coordinate of an instance reference
SYNOPSYS
long GENLIB_GET_REF_Y(insname, refname)
char *insname, *refname;
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.

PARAMETERS
insname Name of the instance in the which the reference is to be searched for
refname Name of the reference
DESCRIPTION
GET_REF_Y looks for the reference, refname, in the instance called insname. Then it computes its absolute coordinates in the figure, and
gives back the y coordinate.
RETURN VALUE
The function returns a long int beeing the y position of the reference in the current figure
ERRORS
"GENLIB_GET_REF_Y impossible : missing GENLIB_DEF_PHFIG"
No figure has been yet specified by a call to DEF_PHFIG. So it isn't possible to place a reference inside it. you must call
DEF_PHFIG before any other layout action.
"illegal getphins : instance called insname does not exist"
No instance called insname exists in the current figure.
"illegal getphref : references called refname does not exist"
No reference called refname exists in the model of the instance insname.
EXAMPLE
#include <genlib.h>
main()
{
long x, y;
/* Create a figure to work on */
GENLIB_DEF_PHFIG("cell");
GENLIB_PLACE("gaci0_b", "r1", NOSYM, 23L, 54L);
/* Get a reference */
y = GENLIB_GET_REF_Y("r1", "a_0");
.
.
GENLIB_PHVIA(x, y, CONT_VIA);
/* Save that on disk */
GENLIB_SAVE_PHFIG();
}
