cphSetInstForceDescend(
g_physConfigID
t_lib
t_cell
t_view
t_inst
g_boolean
)
=> t / nil

Description

Sets or unsets the force descend attribute on a specified instance in the physical configuration associated with the given ID. This forces hierarchy traversal to proceed beyond the instance, even if it would normally be considered a leaf instance.

Arguments

g_physConfigID	ID of the physical configuration cellview.
t_lib	Name of the library where concerned instance is instantiated.
t_cell	Name of the cell where concerned instance is instantiated.
t_view	Name of the cellview where concerned instance is instantiated.
t_inst	Name of the instance.
g_boolean	Boolean specifying whether the force descend is to be set (t) or unset (nil).

Value Returned

t	The force descend was set or unset on the specified instance.
nil	The force descend could not be set or unset.

Example

This example unsets the force descend attribute for an instance I0.
