prependInstallPath

prependInstallPath( 
S_name 
) 
=> t_string

Prepends the Cadence DFII installation path to a file or directory and returns the resulting path as a string.

Possibly adds a slash (/) separator if needed. The typical use of this function is to compute one member of a list passed to setSkillPath.

S_name

File or directory name to append to the installation path. If a symbol is given, its print name is used.

t_string

String formed by prepending the installation path to the argument path.

getInstallPath() 
=> ("/usr5/cds/4.2")

Assume this is your install path.

prependInstallPath( "etc/context" ) 
=> "/usr5/cds/4.2/etc/context"

A slash (/) is added.

prependInstallPath( "/bin" ) 
=> "/usr5/cds/4.2/bin"

setSkillPath( list("." prependInstallPath("bin")
                prependInstallPath("etc/context")) )
=> nil

getSkillPath()
=> ("." "/usr5/cds/4.2/bin" "/usr5/cds/4.2/etc/context")
