NAME

6       GENLIB_FLATTEN_LOFIG  - flatten an instance in the current netlist fig‐
7       ure

SYNOPSIS

10       #include <genlib.h>
11       void GENLIB_FLATTEN_LOFIG(insname,concat)
12       char ∗insname;
13       char concat;
14

PARAMETERS

16       insname             Name of the instance to be flattened
17
18       concat              Indicate whether or  not  to  concatenate  instance
19                           name to instance' objects name
20

DESCRIPTION

22       FLATTEN_LOFIG  inserts the contents of an instance, but its connectors,
23       in the current figure, and then destroys the instance.
24       The concat parameter may take two values:
25
26       YES    to concatenate object name with instance names.
27
28       NO     to copy object names.
29
30       In most case, the concat value must be YES, in order  to  warranty  the
31       unicity  of  names  in  the figure.  It may otherwise fail, because the
32       function would try to add in the current figure  some  object  with  an
33       already existing name.

EXAMPLE

36       #include <genlib.h>
37       main()
38       {
39            /∗ Create a figure to work on  ∗/
40            GENLIB_DEF_LOFIG("mycell");
41            .
42            .
43            .
44            /∗ Place an instance ∗/
45            GENLIB_LOINS("model","instance", "sig1", "sig2", EOL);
46            /∗ flatten an instance ∗/
47            GENLIB_FLATTEN_LOFIG("instance", YES);
48            /∗ Save all that on disk ∗/
49            GENLIB_SAVE_LOFIG();
