Parameter

concat
Indicate whether or not to concatenate instance name to instance' objects name

Description

FLATTEN_ALL_LOINS inserts the contents of all the instances of the current figure in the current figure. All these instances are destroyed during the process, and therefore cannot be refered to later in the netlist description.
The concat parameter may take two values:

YES
to concatenate object name with instance names.
NO
to copy object names.

In most case, the concat value must be YES, in order to warranty the unicity of names in the figure. It may otherwise fail, because the function would try to add in the current figure some object with an already existing name.

Example

#include <genlib.h>
main()
{
/* Create a figure to work on */ DEF_LOFIG("mycell");
.
.
.
/* Place an instance */
LOINS("model","instance", sig1", sig2", EOL); /* flatten all figure instance */

FLATTEN_ALL_LOINS(YES);
/* Save all that on disk */ SAVE_LOFIG(); }
