DESCRIPTION
COPY_UP_REF adds a reference in the current layout cell.
All the reference's attributes are copied from the first found reference
called
refname in the instance
insname.
The designer should avoid to give to several refences the same name if
he plans to use this function.
The new reference is given the name
newname.
The main purpose of this function is to copy a reference in the upper
hierarchical level, so it can be used as
virtual connector, for
the data-path router.

possible to place a reference inside it.
you must call DEF_PHFIG before any other layout action.
"illegal getphins : instance insname does not exist"
-
The instance called insname does not currently belong to the figure.
"GENLIB_COPY_UP_REF impossible : reference refname does not exist"
-
The reference refname does not exist in the model of the instance
insname.
EXAMPLE
#include <genlib.h>
main()
{
/* Create a figure to work on */
GENLIB_DEF_PHFIG("cell");
GENLIB_PLACE("z2l_y", "r1", NOSYM, 23L, 54L);
/* Put a reference */
GENLIB_COPY_UP_REF("mux0_s", "r1", "out_s");
/* Save that on disk */
GENLIB_SAVE_PHFIG();
}
