NAME

       sortlosig - sort the logical signals of a figure by name

ORIGIN

       Paris, France.

SYNOPSYS

       #include "mlo.h"
       void sortlosig(signals)
       losig_list **signals;

PARAMETERS

       **signals	   Pointer to the head of the list of signals that is to be sorted

DESCRIPTION

       sortlosig sorts the list of signals pointed to by signals.  The signals are sorted by names, but since names are not  the  signals  identi-
       fier, the getsigname(3) routine is called to retrieve a signal name.
       The  standart qsort(3) function library is called for sorting.  Therefore, a table the number of signal wide is created, requiring a lot of
       memory with big circuits.  Also, even if qsort(3) runs in n log n time, getsigname(3) is called twice, and the natural comparison  function
       once, and this is quite time consuming with big circuits.  It is recommended to use this function only if needed.

EXAMPLE

       #include "mlo.h"
       void savesorted(figname)
       char *figname;
       {
       lofig_list *figure = getlosig(figname, 'A');
	 sortlocon(&figure->LOCON);
	 sortlosig(&figure->LOSIG);
	 savelofig(figure);
       }

NAME

       addlofig - create a new structural cell model

SYNOPSYS

       #include "mlo.h"
       lofig_list *addlofig(figname)
       char *figname;

PARAMETER

       figname		   Name of the figure to be created

DESCRIPTION

       addlofig creates a new figure called figname and adds it to the list of figure in memory. The new figure is added in front of the list, and
       becomes	itself the list head. No check is performed to see if a figure with the figname exists on disk. If it is the case, the preexisting
       file will be erased while saving.
       The fields LOCON, LOINS, LOSIG, BKSIG, LOPAR LOTRS and USER are set to NULL.
       The field MODE is set to 'A'.
       The field NEXT points to the previous head of list.

RETURN VALUE

       addlofig returns a pointer to the newly created figure.

ERRORS

       "*** mbk error *** illegal addlofig figure figname already exists"
	      There is already a logical figure called figname in memory, so it's impossible to give this name to a cell to be created.

EXAMPLE

       #include "mlo.h"
       lofig_list *get_the_fig(name)
       char *name;
       {
       lofig_list *pt, *fill_fig(/* lofig_list * */);
	  /* scan figure list */
	  for (pt = HEAD_LOFIG; pt; pt = pt->NEXT)
	     if (!strcmp(pt->NAME, figname))
		break;
	  return pt ? pt : fill_fig(addlofig(figname));
       }
