almSetNamePrefix

almSetNamePrefix(
t_lib
t_cell
t_name
[ ?view g_view ]
[ ?tool g_tool ]
)

Description

Sets the name prefix for the view or the tool specified.

The name prefix is used for the instance name in the netlist. The use of the name prefix in the netlist depends on the simulator interface. If the simulator requires that the instance name of a type of components starts with a certain prefix, then the interface must use this name prefix. If this is not a requirement for a simulator, then the interface should not use the name prefix. For the spectre interface, the name prefix is ignored.

Arguments

t_lib

Name of the library in which the cell resides.

t_cell

Name of the cell.

t_name

Name of the prefix.

?view g_view

Name of the view.

?tool g_tool

Name of the tool. This argument is ignored when the g_view argument is specified.

Example

almSetNamePrefix ("analogLib" "npn" "analog" "Q" ?tool "Spectre")
