bug in dbCreateLib / ddCreateLib ??

Discussion in 'Cadence' started by Sylvio Triebel, Oct 24, 2005.

  1. Hello,

    i want to define for each start of icfb a temporary cdb library.

    unless( ddGetObj("tmpLib")
    dbCreateLib( "tmpLib" "/tmp/tmpLib" )
    )

    So far it works fine, but every start of icfb creates a
    new line in the cds.lib file.

    I could not find anything in SourceLink and just wanted to know,
    if there is any good trick to avoid the explosion of cds.lib?

    Thanks,
    Sylvio

  2. What do you suggest I do when I am regenerating a Library from the pipo
    command?

    ( This also generates new lines in the cds.lib! )

    what is the "pipo command"? That's a new one on me...

  4. Stream In/Stream Out (and other interfaces). It stands for "Physical In,
    Physical Out".

    To answer Gerry's question - create the library in DFII before you
    start pipo. Actually I don't entirely understand what the issue is - presumably
    if you just streamed it in, you don't want to delete it? Even if you do, not
    sure why it can't be deleted in the same way...

  5. Andrew:

    After I stream in a cell multiple times into my library, I get a whole bunch
    of lines in my
    cds.lib that continue to add the library ... even though it is already
    there.

    This would not bother me, except that I now get constant warnings that the
    library is defined more than once.
    (even when the library is the same one!) I would like to be able to turn off
    this complaint. ( and not others ... )

  6. Hi Gerry,

    That should not happen. I've not seen it happen before - so report it to
    customer support. Hopefully there's some explanation as to why it's happening -
    perhaps something about your environment setup? Bit busy to think about this
    enough at the moment ot figure out what might be going wrong.

    Andrew.

  7. Hi Gerry,

    I also meant to say that ddCreateLib() should only create a library if it's not
    already there...

    Andrew.
