NAME

loadrdsfig - give back a pointer to a figure

SYNOPSYS

#include "rtlnnn.h"
 void loadrdsfig( Figure, Name, Mode )
    rdsfig_list ∗Figure;
    char        ∗Name;
    char         Mode;

PARAMETER

Figure: Pointer to the RDS Figure created.

Name: Name of the model of the figure.

MODE :: Caracter indicating the status of the figure in memory.

This field can take three values :

´A´: All the cell is loaded in ram (The figure, its rectangles and its instances empty).

´P´: Only information concerning the model interface is present, that means : connectors, the abutment box and through routes of the figure.

´V´: Visualization mode : all is loaded in RAM : The figure, its rectangles, its instances and the rectangles of its instances.

DESCRIPTION

The loadrdsfig function loads in memory a cell model from disk. The loadrdsfig function in fact performs a call to a parser ,chosen by the RDS_IN environment variable.

RETURN VALUE

The pointer to the created figure. (it's the parameter ´Figure´ of the loadrdsfig function).

ERRORS

"Rtl103.h: Unknown rds input format"

The input format defined by the unix environment variable RDS_IN is not supported by the driver (supported formats are "cif" and "gds").

Other errors can appear because the loadrdsfig function calls cif and gds parsers.

{
rdsfig_list ∗RdsFigure;
mbkenv();
rdsenv();
loadrdsparam();
/∗ ∗/ loadrdsfig (RdsFigure, "core", 'A');
