NAME

       GENLIB_DEF_LOFIG - open a netlist model as current figure

SYNOPSYS

       #include <genlib.h>
       void GENLIB_DEF_LOFIG(cellname)
       char ∗cellname;

PARAMETERS

       cellname            Name  of  the  cell which all futher calls to genlib logical functions
                           will work on

DESCRIPTION

       DEF_LOFIG defines the current  working  structural  figure  by  it's  name,  the  cellname
       argument.  It  can be use anywhere in the genlib program, but must appear at least once at
       the top of it,  since  it  also  initalize  the  user's  preferences  through  environment
       variables.
       If  the  figure  called  cellname  doesn't exists in memory, it is created.  If it already
       exists in memory, it makes it the current working figure.  DEF_LOFIG doesn't look on  disk
       for  the  figure  cellname,  so  be careful not to overwrite an existing file while saving
       later on.

EXAMPLE

       #include <genlib.h>
       main()
       {
            /∗ Create a figure to work on  ∗/
            GENLIB_DEF_LOFIG("cell");
            /∗ Place an instance ∗/
            GENLIB_LOINS("model","instance", "sig1", "sig2", "sig3", "vdd", "vss", EOL);
            /∗ Save all that on disk ∗/
            GENLIB_SAVE_LOFIG();
       }
