How can I get the nets which had been highlighted through SKILL?

Hello everyone,
I'm using Allegro 14.2, and I want to get a report which includes
the names of the nets which had been highlighted. How can I implement
that through SKILL?
Thanks.

 

I doubt whether css() would work, since that's a private function,
and in fact is provided by the analog core stuff. The public equivalent
is car(geGetSelSet()) - this may well work in Allegro (although I'm not
familiar with Allegro SKILL).

Regards,

Andrew.

 

Thank you for your help!
But css() and geGetSelSet() are not defined in Allegro.
I got another private function _axlGetObjectHighlight() which may fit
this problem.

Thanks again.

Tom

 

The Allegro equivalent in Axl Skill is:
NAME
axlGetSelSet - get list of objects in sel set

SYNOPSIS
axlGetSelSet(
[r_window]
)
==> lrd_dbid/nil

FUNCTION
Uses SELProcessObjects to walk objects in the selection set.
LSELAddToList is called from SELProcessObjects for each object.

NEEDS
r_window - ignored

RETURNS
lrd_dbid - list of axl DBID's for objects in the
selection set.
nil - if sel set is empty or an error occurred.

 

There are a number of Allegro Skill routines done by users that will
highlight various items in a design. These should be available from the
user contributed skill programs section of Sourcelink. Also, there
are a number of examples that come with the Allegro Base distribution
and should be found in your share/pcb/examples/skill directory.
