VXL-placer form -- how to auto-populate the field: rules?

Discussion in 'Cadence' started by Manju Arasaiah, Apr 9, 2004.

  1. We r using 5.0.32.

    In VXL-placer form, I always get the placer rules field blank (by default).
    I did not see any .cdsenv settings to pre-populate this field.

    On the contrary, I can pre-populate the Export-to-VCR form field (rules)
    but not the placer rules form.

    Appreciate any i/p.

    Thanx, Manju

    Don't remember if there was a form. But the plcmt rule file is basically
    the same as the router one (may be a more simplified one).

  3. Manju,

    Did you try setting the following variable in your .cdsenv.

    layoutXL.placement rulesFile string "<path_to_rulesfile"

    This should populate the Rules File field in the VXL placer form.
