NAME
incataloggds - test if cell belongs to the catalog file 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. Web : http://asim.lip6.fr/recherche/alliance/ E-mail : alliance-users@asim.lip6.fr SYNOPSYS
#include "mut.h" int incataloggds(figname) char *figname; PARAMETER
figname Name of the cell to be checked DESCRIPTION
incataloggds checks a cell represented by its figname beeing present in the catalog file with the 'G' attribut. This means that the cell is a phantom of a gds cell. This is useful when traducing a symbolic layout into physical one, because then the 'G' attribued cells are not to be translated, but just replaced in the output. This is mostly used for pads. The catalog is the sum of all the catalogs of the cells libraries specified in the MBK_CATA_LIB(1) and MBK_WORK_LIB(1). The catalogs of the MBK_CATA_LIB(1) are the files called CATAL, and the MBK_WORK_LIB(1) is by default CATAL but can be changed to MBK_CATAL_NAME(1). RETURN VALUE
incataloggds returns 0 if the cell does not belong to the catalog with the 'G' attribut, a value different from 0 if it does. EXAMPLE
#include "mut.h" char *tell_if_incataloggds(name) char *name; { return incataloggds(name) ? "Jawohl, es ist ein pad" : "Nein, keine"; } SEE ALSO

NAME
catal - catalog file format 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. Web : http://asim.lip6.fr/recherche/alliance/ E-mail : alliance-users@asim.lip6.fr DESCRIPTION
Predefined libraries The environment variable MBK_CATA_LIB(1) defines several paths corresponding to the Alliance predefined cell libraries. Each library is in one unix directory. sxlib standard cell library dp_sxlib data-path compiler library rflib registers library ramlib ram library romlib rom library padlib pads lib For each library, a special file named CATAL describes the library contents. This file must be in the same directory as the library cells. For the Alliance tools, the cells described in the predefined libraries are read only. The working library The environment variable MBK_WORK_LIB(1) defines the current working directory. Its default value is . (dot). This directory will contain the user cells, seen as read write by the Alliance tools. It is not necessary to describe all the user cells in a catalog file. But the user can locally define a catalog file for the working library. The local catalog file name is set by the environ- ment variable MBK_CATAL_NAME(1), CATAL by default. Alliance will concatenate all catalog files of the predefined libraries and the optional catalog file of the working library to access the attributs of each cell. Cells attributs A cell may be characterized by four attributs: C this attribut means that the cell is a leaf cell in the context of a recursive flatten, for either the layout or netlist view. The cell will not be flattened. G this attribut means that the cell has an existing equivalent GDS or CIF representation. It is used by the sym- bolic to real translation tool, s2r(1), to make direct replacements. F this attribut means that the cell is used as a feed through. D this attribut is used only in the user defined catalog. As the user is not allowed to delete a cell in a prede- fined library, it is possible to virtually remove a cell of a predefined library with the D attribut in the user defined catalog. EXAMPLE
