NAME
       GENLIB_LOSIG - declare an internal logical signal, or a vector of internal logical signals

SYNOPSYS
       #include <genlib.h>
       void GENLIB_LOSIG(name)
       char *name;

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
       name		   Name of a signal to be declared

DESCRIPTION
       LOSIG creates the internal signal, or the set of internal signals coresponding to a vector description, represented by  name.   See  BUS(3)
       and ELM(3) for more details on vectors.
       The  need  for declaring signal is mostly felt when one wants to create a consistent vector declaration, for file formats that do not allow
       partial or multiple declarations, like vhdl.  This way, a user can create a vector and access its member the way he wants, but still having
       an internal consistent form.

       Warning		   If  a signal is declared with LOSIG, but not used, the resulting file will have an internal node floating.  This is not
			   an error from a genlib point of view, so the user must be aware of it.

EXAMPLE
       #include <genlib.h>
       main()
       {
	    /* Create a figure to work on  */
	    GENLIB_DEF_LOFIG("cell");
	    /* Define interface *
	    GENLIB_LOCON(...
	    /* declare buses */
	    GENLIB_LOSIG("grum[23:0]");
	    GENLIB_LOSIG("iconection[0:7]");
	    /* Place an instance */
	    GENLIB_LOINS("no2_y" ,"no3" ,"grum[12]" ,"a9_s" ,"new_no3_s" ,"vdd" ,"vss" ,0);
	    GENLIB_LOINS("no2_y" ,"no4" ,"a12_s" ,"grum[6]" ,"no4_s" ,"vdd" ,"vss" ,0);
	    GENLIB_LOINS("a2_y" ,"a22" ,"no3_s" ,"grum[15]" ,"a22_s" ,"vdd" ,"vss" ,0);
	    /* Save all that on disk */
	    GENLIB_SAVE_LOFIG();
       }
