gdmsetname

gdmsetname(
{ G_gdmSpec | q_gdmSpecList }
g_name
[ g_version ]
[ x_gdmOptions ]
[ g_xtra ]
)
=> t / nil

Description

Associates the name you specify with the library, cell, view, directory, or file that G_gdmSpec represents.

If G_gdmSpec represents a directory that is not a library element, this function works recursively on the directory only if the GDM_RECURSE option was set when G_gdmSpec was created with gdmCreateSpec.

This function is the SKILL equivalent of the gdmsetname shell command.

Arguments

G_gdmSpec

The library, cell, view, directory, or files to associate with g_name.

q_gdmSpecList

A gdmSpecList object containing gdmSpec objects.

g_name

The name to associate with the files. This is equivalent to an RCS tag name or a TDM release name.

g_version

The version of the files to associate with g_name. You can specify this argument only if G_gdmSpec represents a file or a view.

x_gdmOptions

This argument is currently ignored. The default is the integer 0.

g_xtra

String containing additional arguments to be passed to the underlying design management system’s set name command.

Value Returned

t

The name was associated with the files.

nil

An error occurred and the name was not associated with the files.
