NAME

       Verilog::Netlist::Cell - Instantiated cell within a Verilog Netlist

SYNOPSIS

         use Verilog::Netlist;

         ...
         my $cell = $module->find_cell('cellname');
         print $cell->name;

DESCRIPTION

       A Verilog::Netlist::Cell object is created by Verilog::Netlist for every instantiation in
       the current module.

ACCESSORS

       See also Verilog::Netlist::Subclass for additional accessors and methods.

       $self->comment
           Returns any comments following the definition.  keep_comments=>1 must be passed to
           Verilog::Netlist::new for comments to be retained.

       $self->delete
           Delete the cell from the module it's under.

       $self->gateprim
           True if the cell is a gate primitive instantiation (buf/cmos/etc), but not a UDP.

       $self->module
           Pointer to the module the cell is in.

       $self->name
           The instantiation name of the cell.

       $self->netlist
           Reference to the Verilog::Netlist the cell is under.

       $self->pins
           List of Verilog::Netlist::Pin connections for the cell.

       $self->pins_sorted
           List of name sorted Verilog::Netlist::Pin connections for the cell.

       $self->range
           The range for the cell (e.g. "[1:0]") or false (i.e. undef or "") if not ranged.

       $self->submod
           Reference to the Verilog::Netlist::Module the cell instantiates.  Only valid after the
           design is linked.

       $self->submodname
           The module name the cell instantiates (under the cell).

MEMBER FUNCTIONS

       See also Verilog::Netlist::Subclass for additional accessors and methods.

       $self->lint
           Checks the cell for errors.  Normally called by Verilog::Netlist::lint.

       $self->new_pin
           Creates a new Verilog::Netlist::Pin connection for this cell.

       $self->pins_sorted
           Returns all Verilog::Netlist::Pin connections for this cell.

       $self->dump
           Prints debugging information for this cell.
