PARAMETER
- insname
-
Name of the instance which y coordinate is to be given back
DESCRIPTION
GET_INS_Y looks for
the instance called insname in the current figure.
Then it computes its absolute coordinates in the figure, and gives back its
y coordinate.
RETURN VALUE
The function returns a long int beeing the y position of the instance
in the current figure
ERRORS
"GENLIB_GET_INS_Y 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 connector inside it.
you must call DEF_PHFIG before any other layout action.
"illegal getphins : instance called insname does not exist"
-
No instance called insname exists in the current figure.
EXAMPLE
#include <genlib.h>
main()
{
long x, y;
/* Create a figure to work on */
GENLIB_DEF_PHFIG("cell");
GENLIB_PLACE("gaci0_b", "r1", NOSYM, 23L, 54L);
GENLIB_PLACE_TOP("gaci0_b", "r2", SYM_Y);
GENLIB_PLACE_RIGHT("gaci0_b", "r3", SYM_Y);
/* Get a connector */
x = GENLIB_GET_INS_X("r3");
y = GENLIB_GET_INS_Y("r3");
.
.
/* Save that on disk */
GENLIB_SAVE_PHFIG();
}
