Description

Escapes pins in the entire top cellview or, optionally, in a given region or for nets in a set. Metal1 and poly pins are escaped to metal2. Any disconnects between the ends of the new connections and the existing global routes are connected with guides to keep the connectivity legal.

Arguments

-exclude_net {s_netName …}

Prevents listed nets from being processed.

Unless they are fixed or locked, nets in this list may be shifted while routing other nets.

-exclude_set d_setObj

Excludes nets in the given set from processing.

-exclude_type {[power][ground][clock]}

Prevents nets of the given type from being processed. By default, no nets are ignored.

-region {f_xlo f_ylo f_xhi f_yhi}

Processes routes in the area given by the lower-left (f_xlo f_ylo) and upper-right (f_xhi f_yhi) coordinates. By default, the entire top cellview is processed.

-set d_setObj  

Processes nets in the given set. By default, the entire top cell is routed.

-threads i_threads

Specifies the number of threads or processors to use in parallel to run this command. By default, if multi-threading has been enabled (enable_multithreading), the session threads are used, otherwise, one processor is used.
