Name of the instance in the which the reference is to be searched for
- refname

RETURN VALUE
The function returns a long int beeing the x position of the reference
in the current figure
ERRORS
"GENLIB_GET_REF_X 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 reference inside it.
you must call DEF_PHFIG before any other layout action.
"GENLIB_GET_REF_X 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 reference inside it.
you must call DEF_PHFIG before any other layout action.
"GENLIB_GET_REF_X impossible : no abutment box"
-
The current figure does not have an abutment box. Use DEF_AB(3)
before this function.
"illegal GENLIB_GET_REF_X : orientation is XX"
-
The face parameter does not have a legal value, but XX.
"illegal getphins : instance called insname does not exist"
-
No instance called insname exists in the current figure
"illegal getphref : references called refname does not exist"
-
No reference called refname exists in the model of the instance
insname.
EXAMPLE
#include <genlib.h>
main()
{
/* Create a figure to work on */
GENLIB_DEF_PHFIG("cell");
GENLIB_PLACE("gaci0_b", "r1", NOSYM, 23L, 54L);
/* Put a reference */
GENLIB_GET_REF_X("r1", "a_0", ALU2, 2, NORTH);
/* Save that on disk */
GENLIB_SAVE_PHFIG();
