NAME

       GENLIB_COPY_UP_ALL_REF - copy a several physical reference from an instance in the current figure

SYNOPSYS

       #include <genlib.h>
       void GENLIB_COPY_UP_ALL_REF(reftype, insname, concatenate)
       char ∗reftype, ∗insname;
       char concatenate;

PARAMETERS

       reftype             Type of the references to be duplicated

       insname             Name of the instance in the which the references is to be searched for

       concatenate         Indicates  whether  or  not  to concatenate the instance name to the references names
                           when copying

DESCRIPTION

       COPY_UP_ALL_REF duplicates all the references of type reftype of the instance  called  insname  into  the
       current  layout  cell.   The  main  purpose  of  this  function  is to copy a set references in the upper
       hierarchical level, so it can be used as virtual connector, for the data-path  router.   See  dpr(1)  for
       details.
       The reftype argument can take two values:

       "ref_con"           for virtual connectors

       "ref_ref"           for any other references

       See the leaf cells design for generators document for details on reference types and usage.
       The concatenate argument can take two values:

       AYES                indicates  that  the  name  of  the copied references is concatenated to the instance
                           name.

       NO                  implies a direct duplication of the reference name

ERRORS

       "GENLIB_COPY_UP_ALL_REF impossible : missing GENLIB_DEF_PHFIG"
              No figure has been yet specified by a call to DEF_PHFIG. So it isn't possible to place a reference
              inside it.  you must call DEF_PHFIG before any other layout action.
       "illegal getphins : instance insname does not exist"
              The instance called insname does not currently belong to the figure.
       "GENLIB_COPY_UP_ALL_REF impossible : references of type reftype do not exist"
              No reference of type reftype exist in the model of the instance insname.

EXAMPLE

       #include <genlib.h>
       main()
       {
            /∗ Create a figure to work on  ∗/
            GENLIB_DEF_PHFIG("cell");
            GENLIB_PLACE("z2l_y", "r1", NOSYM, 23L, 54L);
            /∗ Put a reference ∗/
            GENLIB_COPY_UP_ALL_REF("ref_con", "r1", NO);
            /∗ Save that on disk ∗/
            GENLIB_SAVE_PHFIG();
       }
