dbCreateConnByName

dbCreateConnByName( 
d_net 
d_inst 
t_name 
) 
=> d_instTerm / nil 

Description

Similar to dbCreateConn, except the master terminal is defined by t_name instead of being specified by the master terminal’s dbObject.

Arguments

d_net	Net to be connected to the instance terminal.
d_inst	Instance of the master cellview where terminal d_term is defined. d_inst cannot be a mosaic instance. Instance terms are not supported in mosaic instances.
t_name	The name of a terminal defined in the master cellview of instance d_inst.

Value Returned

d_instTerm	The connected instance terminal.
nil	The instance terminal is not connected.

Example

Creates an instance terminal of master terminal A on instance inst and connect it to the net.

conn = dbCreateConnByName(net inst "A")

If you specify nil as the d_net value, a warning message displays and the instance terminal is not created.
