How to rename a category - in 5.0 DFII?

Discussion in 'Cadence' started by Manju Arasaiah, May 4, 2004.

  1. I did not find a way to rename a cell category inside a library...

    Anyone has a way, apart from renaming the .Cat file?

    thanks, Manju

    Manju:
    Check out the ddCat SKILL procedures. You will probably have to get
    the list of cells and create a new category and then delete the old
    instead of a direct category rename.

    Manju,

    The only way I found was to rename the cat_name.cat file but, the
    library_name.TopCat file also needs to be edited since it contains a
    list of all the catagories.

  4. Tim, Erik,

    Thanks.

    physically renaming unix files and the contents of library.TopCat works.
    May be I need to do this thru SKILL function or by using ddCat*

    cheers..
