DELCHAIN(3)						       MBK UTILITY FUNCTIONS						       DELCHAIN(3)

NAME

       delchain - delete an element of a chain_list

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 "mut.h"
       chain_list *delchain(pthead, ptdel)
       chain_list *pthead;
       chain_list *ptdel;

PARAMETERS

       pthead		   Pointer to a chain list

       ptdel		   Pointer to the element to be deleted.

DESCRIPTION

       delchain deletes the element of the chain_list pointed to by ptdel in the list pointed to by pthead.  The list consistency is  maintainded,
       and the element put back in the list of free blocks.

RETURN VALUE

       delchain  returns  a  pointer  to  the  new head of list if the ptdel pointer used to belong to the list. In most case, it has the value of
       pthead. If the pointer doesn't belong to the list, NULL is returned.

ERROR

       "*** mbk error *** delchain impossible : pointer NULL"
	      At least one of the arguments are pointing to NULL, and that clear that such a pointer can't be deleted, or used for freeing.

EXAMPLE

       #include "mut.h"
       void delete_match(c0, c1)
       chain_list *c0, *c1;
       {
       chain_list *t0, *t1, *next;
	  for (t0 = c0; t0; t0 = next)
	     for (t1 = c1; t1; t1 = t1->NEXT)
		if (t1->DATA == t0->DATA)
		   next = delchain(c0, t0);
       }

UNFLATTENLOFIG(3)					   MBK LOGICAL UTILITY FUNCTIONS					 UNFLATTENLOFIG(3)

NAME

       unflattenlofig - creates a hierarchy level from instances of a 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 "mlo.h"
       void unflattenlofig(ptfig, figname, insname, list)
       lofig_list *ptfig;
       char *figname;
       char *insname;
       chain_list *list;

PARAMETERS

       ptfig		   Pointer to a logical figure

       figname		   Name of the new figure (model)

       insname		   Instance name of the new figure

       list		   Pointer to the head of a chain_list, containing instance pointers

DESCRIPTION

       unflattenlofig creates a new figure, figname, containing the instances listed in list, and adds it in the figure pointed to by ptfig,  with
       the name insname.
       All  the  terminals  of	the new figure are called using the name of the corresponding signal if it exists, or with the name of a connector
       connected to this signal.  The new name is suffixed with a number, obtained with an internal counter, in order to  ensure  that	names  are
       differents.

ERRORS

       No  errors  can	directly result from a call to unflattenlofig, but since it uses many other mbk functions, it may be a good error starting
       point.

EXAMPLE

       #include "mlo.h"
       {
	lofig_list *lofig;
	chain_list *list = NULL;
	lofig = getlofig ( "rootfig", 'A');
	list = addchain (list, (void *)getloins (lofig, "nan0");
	list = addchain (list, (void *)getloins (lofig, "nor2");
	unflattenlofig ( lofig, "newfig", "newins", list);
       }
