How to enable openaccess #8

Open etch32 opened 3 years ago

I'm not sure if this is the appropriate place for this question; if not please redirect me to the correct venue.

I was very excited to see that Xic supports openaccess databases. I'm currently trying the pre-compiled xictools_xic-LinuxDebian10-4.3.10-x86_64.deb on Ubuntu 18.04

I'm trying to read an openaccess library (both layout and schematic) but can't seem to enable the OpenAccess Libs menu item in the File menu.

I've set these variables to the shared libraries

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/path/to/oaRun_22.50/lib/linux_rhel50_gcc44x_64/opt export XIC_LIBRARY_PATH=/path/to/oaRun_22.50/lib/linux_rhel50_gcc44x_64/opt

Should there be an OA plugin in /usr/local/xictools/xic/plugins$ Here's the contents -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 53K Jul 21 17:56 py27.so -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 16K Jul 21 17:56 tcl.so -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 16K Jul 21 17:56 tcltk.so

What am I doing wrong?

Thank you for your help. Eric
