phref - mbk physical reference

Description

The phref structure is used to describe a reference belonging to a symbolic layout model, see phfig(3) for details. A reference allows to name a point anywhere in a given model. It may then be seen as a name, and not anymore as a couple of coordinates. References are mostly used for cell programming and multi-access connector representation.

The declarations needed to work on phref are available in the header file /labo/include/mph402.h", where `402' is the actual mbk version.

The following C structure supports the description of the reference : typedef struct phref {

struct phref
*NEXT;
char
*FIGNAME;
char
*NAME;
long
XREF,YREF;
struct ptype
*USER; } phref_list;
NEXT
Pointer to the next reference in the list.
FIGNAME
Kind of reference. Gives information about the possible uses of the object. Some FIGNAME are in use today :
ref_con
for multi-access connectors
ref_ref
for all other uses
NAME
Name of the reference. The refence is identified by its name, so it should be unique at a given hierarchical level.
XREF, YREF
Coordinates of the point beeing referenced.
USER
Pointer to a ptype list, see ptype(3) for details, that is a general purpose pointer used to share informations on the reference.
