NAME

       GENLIB_WIRE1 - place a physical segment in the current figure

SYNOPSYS

       #include <genlib.h>
       void GENLIB_WIRE1(layer, width, ins1, con1, index1, ins2, con2, index2)
       char layer;
       long width;
       char ∗ins1, ∗con1, ∗ins2, ∗con2;

PARAMETERS

       layer               Layout layer of the segment

       width               Width of the segment

       ins1                Name of the instance in which the connector con1 is to be looked for

       con1                Name of a connector, or reference, used as first endpoint of the wire

       ins2                Name of the instance in which the connector con2 is to be looked for

       con2                Name of a connector, or reference, used as last endpoint of the wire

DESCRIPTION

       WIRE1  adds  a  segment made of the layer level in the current layout cell, the starting point beeing the
       connector, or reference, con1 of the instance ins1,  and  the  ending  point  beeing  the  connector,  or
       reference, con2 of the instance ins1. The segment is drawn between the coordinates of con1 in the current
       figure and the coordinates of con2 in the current figure.

       If the endpoints are connectors, the indexes index1 and index2 must respectivly refer to con1  and  con2.
       If they are references, then they are not taked care of.  One shall notice that connectors and references
       of a given model should not share names if WIRE1 is to be used.

       The layer argument can take the following legal values :

              NWELL

              PWELL

              NTIE

              PTIE

              NDIF

              PDIF

              NTRANS

              PTRANS

              POLY

              ALU1

              ALU2

              ALU3

              TPOLY

              TALU1

              TALU2

              TALU3

ERRORS

       "GENLIB_WIRE1 impossible : missing GENLIB_DEF_PHFIG"
              No figure has been yet specified by a call to DEF_PHFIG. So it isn't possible to place an instance
              inside it.  you must call DEF_PHFIG before any other layout action.
       "illegal addphseg : x1, y1, x2, y2"
              A  symbolic  segment  must  be either vertical or horizontal, so either x1 = x2, or y1 = y2. Since
              WIRE1 creates a segment from relative coordinates, care must be taken to follow the previous rule.
       "GENLIB_WIRE1 impossible : same name conX, for connector and reference in insX"
              The model of the instance insX has both a connector and a reference that matches  the  conX  name.
              This is not legal since genlib doesn't know which one to choose as point.
       "illegal getphins : instance insX does not exist"
              The instance called insX does not currently belong to the figure.

EXAMPLE

       #include <genlib.h>
       main()
       {
            /∗ Create a figure to work on  ∗/
            GENLIB_DEF_PHFIG("cell");
            GENLIB_PLACE("gaci0_b", "r_addin_1", NOSYM, 0, 0);
            GENLIB_PLACE_RIGHT("gapgn_b", "pg", NOSYM);
            GENLIB_PLACE_RIGHT("gacin_b", "r_addin_2", NOSYM);
            /∗ Draw a segment ∗/
            GENLIB_WIRE1(ALU1, 1, "r_addin_1", "out", 0L, "r_addin_2", "in", 1L);
            /∗ Save that on disk ∗/
            GENLIB_SAVE_PHFIG();
       }
