Description
Updates AMS Designer information with the current state of verilog, systemVerilog, veriloga, verilogams and vhdl text views. You might use this function, for example, when you have updated a Verilog-AMS source file outside of the AMS Designer environment. You might also use it when you receive a Verilog-AMS library in a single source file, bring it into the Library.Cell:View structure using xmvlog -use5x, and then need to prepare the library for use in the AMS Designer environment.
