SYNOPSYS¶
#include "mlo.h"
void lofigchain(ptfig)
lofig_list ∗ptfig;
PARAMETER¶
- ptfig
- Pointer to a lofig_list
DESCRIPTION¶
The
lofigchain function creates the dual representation of natural mbk
netlists. In mbk, netlists are described in terms of signal attached to
connectors. With
lofigchain, one can have the dual sight : connectors
attached to signals. This can be very useful, depending on the application,
but it's also memory consuming on big netlists, since two views of the same
thing are present in memory at the same time.
The information resulting of a call to
lofigchain is present in the
USER field of all signals of the figure, accessible through
ptfig->LOSIG. The
USER field has a
ptype typed
LOFIGCHAIN, that points on a
chain_list whose
DATA points
on each
locon beeing connected to the given signal.
ERROR¶
"∗∗∗ mbk error ∗∗∗ lofigchain
impossible : figure
ptfig->NAME is interface only"
In order to be valid, the netlist resulting of
a call to lofigchain must be done on a figure entirely loaded in ram.
See getlofig for details.
EXAMPLE¶
#include "mut.h"
#include "mlo.h"
void print_netlist(p)
lofig_list ∗p;
{
losig_list ∗s;
chain_list ∗c;
lofigchain(p);
for (s = p->LOSIG; s; s = s->NEXT){
(void)fprintf(stdout, "signal : index = %ld name = %s\n",
s->INDEX, getsigname(s));
c = (chain_list ∗)(getptype(s->USER, (long)LOFIGCHAIN)->DATA);
while (c) {
fprintf(stdout, "conname : %s\n",
(locon_list ∗)(c->DATA)->NAME);
c = c->NEXT;
}
}
}
