NAME

       GENLIB_GET_REF_X - retrieve the x coordinate of an instance reference

SYNOPSYS

       long GENLIB_GET_REF_X(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 SH DESCRIPTION GET_REF_X looks for the reference, refname, in the instance called insname.

RETURN VALUE

       The function returns a long int beeing the x position of the reference in the current figure

ERRORS

       "GENLIB_GET_REF_X 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.
       "GENLIB_GET_REF_X 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.
       "GENLIB_GET_REF_X impossible : no abutment box"
	      The current figure does not have an abutment box. Use DEF_AB(3) before this function.
       "illegal GENLIB_GET_REF_X : orientation is XX"
	      The face parameter does not have a legal value, but XX.
       "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()
       {
	    /* Create a figure to work on  */
	    GENLIB_DEF_PHFIG("cell");
	    GENLIB_PLACE("gaci0_b", "r1", NOSYM, 23L, 54L);
	    /* Put a reference */
	    GENLIB_GET_REF_X("r1", "a_0", ALU2, 2, NORTH);
	    /* Save that on disk */
	    GENLIB_SAVE_PHFIG();
       }
