LOINS(3)						 MBK LOGICAL STRUCTURE DEFINITIONS						  LOINS(3)

NAME

       loins - mbk logical instance

DESCRIPTION

       The loins is used to describe an instance of the logical view of a figure.

       The declarations needed to work on loins are available in the header file "/labo/include/mlo404.h", where '404' is the actual mbk version.

       The following C structure supports the description of the logical instance :
	      typedef struct loins {
		 struct loins	  *NEXT;
		 struct locon	  *LOCON;
		 char		  *INSNAME;
		 char		  *FIGNAME;
		 struct ptype	  *USER;
	      } loins_list;

       NEXT		   Pointer to the next loins of the list.

       INSNAME		   Local name of the instance. It identifies the instance at a given hierarchical level, so it should unique. When working
			   on both layout and netlist views of a cell, instance names should be the same on each representation.

       FIGNAME		   Name of the model of the instanciated cell.

       LOCON		   Pointer to the head of the list of connectors of the instance. Consistency between the connectors of the  instance  and
			   the	connectors  of its model on disk is not ensured by the parsers, because a model local to the file beeing parsed is
			   used, not the possible model on disk. See locon(3) for details.

       USER		   Pointer to a ptype list, see ptype(3) for details, that is a general purpose pointer used to share informations on  the
			   instance.
