[SUPPORT] leHiCreateInst must interactive

[xiaohangguo]

I would like to get the value of the mom capacitor by creating instances, but I can't do it this way yet, I have to do an interaction in virtuoso to make the program go on properly, is there a good way to do it?

    ws['evalstring']("leHiCreateInst()")
    ws['evalstring']("hiiSetCurrentForm('leCreateInstXLForm)")
    ws['evalstring']("leCreateInstXLForm->libName->value=\"hlmc55ef_hv\"")
    ws['evalstring']("leCreateInstXLForm->cellName->value=\"mom12\"")
    # ws['load']("/home/lvshuhang/ted-viewer/core/interface/awv_plot/tests/temp.il")
    c = ws['evalstring']("leCreateInstXLForm->c->value")
    debug(c)
    # ws["hiiToggleEnterForm"]("leCreateInstXLForm") 
    # ws["addPoint"]([0,0])
    ws["cancelEnterFun"]()

I don't recommend the "hi" functions, because they operate on the user interface. It is better to use the underlying "db" functions.

You can use dbOpenCellViewByType to open the cell view where you want to create the instance and the cell view you want to instantiate. Then use dbCreateInst to create the instance and use normal attribute access (-> in skill or . in python) to read or change its parameters.

Please consult the cadence documents for details. It is expained much better there. I can only help you with skillbridge usage. But to me it seems you first need a working skill code.

You can come back when you have a specific problem with the skillbridge usage.

I know that the interactive graphics window creation instance is not very good. But ,When creating an instance, whether it is dbCreateInst or dbCreateParamInst, the callback function will not be executed normally, for example, if I want to create a mom capacitor, its capacitance cannot be updated normally.

[xiaohangguo]

I know you don't understand why you need to do this, but it is true that the two APIs dbCreateInst or dbCreateParamInst do not work very well, and I am also helpless.

[xiaohangguo]

So I think the best solution is, can you give me a suggestion of a way to get through the skill bridge, close this window, now I need a mouse click to do it properly

The best option here is to search the cadence support on how to trigger callbacks via skill.

There is a CCSinvokeCdfCallbacks.il cadence provides which can be found there. This method can then be triggered via skillbridge:

ws["CCSinvokeCdfCallbacks"](...)

What do you mean how to use the from cadence provided method or cadence support?

CCSinvokeCdfCallbacks method can't run in my CIW

It is not available by default CCSinvokeCdfCallbacks.il is a file which can be aquired via the cadence support site. Somebody at your company or university should have a support login. In there CCSinvokeCdfCallbacks is defined and can be used after the file is loaded.

I am not allowed to share the file since it is owned by Cadence
