Procedural interface for Virtuoso schematic navigator

$

0

I am trying to get the hierarchical list of instances that a net is connected to. I found two flows and both have issues:

 

  1. Schematic Navigator --> Select Net --> Right-Mouse-click on the net in navigator --> Probe --> Add net and connected instance
    • This works great and it probes all the instances the net is connected to.
    • However the geGetAllProbe() returns the probeId of the net. I can't get the dbId of instances connected to the net procedurally. Is there a better way to get these instance dbIds?
  2. auProbeAddDevsForNet()
    • This auLvs() functionality is broken. Works on certain schematics but fails on many.
    • I also tried setting the graphic env variable probeNetDisplayCheckInstance and this did not work
    • windowId~>probeNetDisplayCheckInstance = t did not work either
    • Is this function supported at all?

 

I heard probing has been enhanced in IC616 and I am yet to try this.

Any help or insight into this is greatly appreicated.
