GENLIB_PHREF.3alc - Man Page
place a physical reference in the current figure at absolute coordinates
Synopsis
#include <genlib.h> void GENLIB_PHREF(type, name, x, y) char ∗type, ∗name; long x, y;
Parameters
- type
Type of the reference to be added
- name
Name of the reference
- x, y
Absolute coordinates of the reference
Description
PHREF adds a reference in the current layout cell, at the specified coordinates. A reference is an object that allows to symbolicaly name a point for futur use by the designer. They have been mainly used in the past to program decoders, in order to obtain many cells from a unique cell.
The type argument may take the two following legal values:
- ref_con
for virtual connectors, see dpr(1) for details.
- ref_ref
for any other need from the designer.
Errors
"GENLIB_PHREF impossible : missing GENLIB_DEF_PHFIG"
No figure has been yet specified by a call to DEF_PHFIG. So it isn't possible to place a reference inside it. you must call DEF_PHFIG before any other layout action.
Example
#include <genlib.h> main() { /∗ Create a figure to work on ∗/ GENLIB_DEF_PHFIG("cell"); . /∗ Put a reference ∗/ GENLIB_PHREF("ref_con", "in_a[0]", 102L, 10L); . . GENLIB_DEF_AB(0L, 0L, 0L, 0L); /∗ Save that on disk ∗/ GENLIB_SAVE_PHFIG(); }
