Description

SAVE_PHSC saves the current working figure previously definded by a DEF_PHFIG or DEF_PHSC call, and performs a DEF_AB(0L, 0L, 0L, 0L) just before saving the figure, in order to give it the appropriate size for standard cell blocks. SAVE_PHSC uses environment variables to choose the file format and the path to the file. No check is made to see if a file with the same name already exists on disk, so be careful not to overwrite some precious data.

Error

SAVE_PHSC impossible : missing DEF_PHFIG" No figure has been yet specified by a call to DEF_PHFIG or DEF_PHSC. So it isn't possible to save anything. you must call DEF_PHFIG before any other layout action.

Example

#include <genlib.h>
main()
{
/* Create a physical figure to work on */ DEF_PHSC("cell");
/* Place an instance */
SC_PLACE("finst", NOSYM,0L,0L);
/* Save all that on disk */
SAVE_PHSC();
}
