NAME

       GENLIB_SAVE_PHFIG - save a layout on disk

SYNOPSYS

       #include <genlib.h>
       void GENLIB_SAVE_PHFIG();

DESCRIPTION

       SAVE_PHFIG  saves  the  current  working  figure previously definded by a DEF_PHFIG call. SAVE_PHFIG uses
       environment variables to choose the file format and the path to the file.
       MBK_OUT_PH set up the output file format, the valid ones beeing :
              cp
              ap
       you could for example do :
              setenv MBK_OUT_PH ap
       MBK_WORK_LIB set up the output file path. Any valid unix path is ok.
       for example :
                   setenv MBK_WORK_LIB ~fred/booth/genlib
       SAVE_PHFIG doesn't look on disk for the figure cellname, so be careful not to overwrite an existing  file
       while saving.

ERROR

       "GENLIB_SAVE_PHFIG impossible : missing GENLIB_DEF_PHFIG"
              No  figure  has  been yet specified by a call to DEF_PHFIG. So it isn't possible to save anything.
              you must call DEF_PHFIG before any other layout action.

EXAMPLE

       #include <genlib.h>
       main()
       {
            /∗ Create a figure to work on  ∗/
            GENLIB_DEF_PHFIG("mycell");
            /∗ Place an instance ∗/
            GENLIB_PLACE("mymodel","firstinstance", NOSYM,0L,0L);
            /∗ Save all that on disk ∗/
            GENLIB_SAVE_PHFIG();
       }
