PARAMETERS

insname

Name to be given to the instance on the model

symetry

Geometrical operation to be performed on the instance before beeing placed

x, y

Coordinates of the lower left corner of the abutment box of the model in the current figure

DESCRIPTION

SC_PLACE add an instance in the current cell. The bottom left corner of the instance is placed, after beeing symetrized and/or rotated, at (x, y) coordinates. The placement takes place only if the netlist is up to day, because the model of the instance is seeked there, in order to ensure consistency. The placed instance becomes the new "reference instance", used in the relative placement functions.
The symetry argument can take eight legal values :

NOSYM

no geometrical operation is performed

SYM_Y

Y becomes -Y, that means toward X axe symetry

SYM_X

X becomes -X, that means toward Y axe symetry

SYMXY

X becomes -X, Y becomes -Y

ROT_P

a positive 90 degrees rotation take place

ROT_M

a negative 90 degrees rotation take place

SY_RP

Y becomes -Y, and then a positive 90 degrees rotation take place

SY_RM

Y becomes -Y, and then a negative 90 degrees rotation take place

EXAMPLE

#include <genlib.h>
main()
{
        /* Create a figure to work on  */
        GENLIB_DEF_PHSC("cell");
        /* Place two instances */
        GENLIB_SC_PLACE("ins1", NOSYM, 0L, 0L);
        GENLIB_SC_PLACE("ins2", NOSYM, 80L, 100L);
        /* Save all that on disk */
        GENLIB_SAVE_PHSC();
