cv = geGetEditCellView()

vreRunChecker(cv "stdCell" "nr")

The following example specifies options in batch mode for device-level routing style and then runs pre-route checker.

cv = geGetEditCellView()

handle = vreGetHandle(cv 'device 'gbr)

vreSetOptions(handle '(nil check_existingDRCs nil check_displayLog t check_overwriteLog t check_generateMarkers nil))
