dbSetInstHeaderMasterName( 
d_instHeader 
t_libName

) 
=> t / nil 

Description

Sets the master of individual instance on the instHeader to the new master. All the instances are removed from the old instHeader and move to the new instHeader, which may exist or not.

t_libName	New master library name. If it is nil, use the one from the instHeader.
t_cellName	New master cell name. If it is nil, use the one from the instHeader.
t_viewName	New master view name. If it is nil, use the one from the instHeader.

Value Returned

t	The library name/cell name/view name of the master is set successfully.
nil	The library name/cell name/view name of the master is not set successfully.
