NAME

GENLIB_SAVE_PHSC - save a layout on disk

SYNOPSYS

#include <genlib.h>
void GENLIB_SAVE_PHSC();

ORIGIN

This software belongs to the ALLIANCE CAD SYSTEM developed by the ASIM team at LIP6 laboratory of Université Pierre et Marie CURIE, in Paris, France.

DESCRIPTION

SAVE_PHSC saves the current working figure previously definded by a DEF_PHFIG or DEF_PHSC call, and performs a DEF_AB(0L, 0L, 0L, 0L) just before saving the figure, in order to give it the appropriate size for standard cell blocks. SAVE_PHSC uses environment variables to choose the file format and the path to the file.
No check is made to see if a file with the same name already exists on disk, so be careful not to overwrite some precious data.

ERROR

"GENLIB_SAVE_PHSC impossible : missing GENLIB_DEF_PHFIG"
No figure has been yet specified by a call to DEF_PHFIG or DEF_PHSC. So it isn't possible to save anything. you must call DEF_PHFIG before any other layout action.

EXAMPLE

#include <genlib.h>
main()
{
	/∗ Create a physical figure to work on ∗/
	GENLIB_DEF_PHSC("cell");
	/∗ Place an instance ∗/
	GENLIB_SC_PLACE("finst", NOSYM,0L,0L);
	/∗ Save all that on disk ∗/
	GENLIB_SAVE_PHSC();
}
