Overview
GET_REF_Y looks for the reference, refname, in the instance called insname. Then it computes its absolute coordinates in the figure, and gives back the y coordinate.
Return value
The function returns a long int beeing the y position of the reference in the current figure
Errors
"GENLIB_GET_REF_Y 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 called insname does not exist"
No instance called insname exists in the current figure.
"illegal getphref : references called refname does not exist"
No reference called refname exists in the model of the instance insname.
Examples
#include <genlib.h>
main()
{
long x, y;
/∗ Create a figure to work on ∗/
GENLIB_DEF_PHFIG("cell");
GENLIB_PLACE("gaci0_b", "r1", NOSYM, 23L, 54L);
/∗ Get a reference ∗/
y = GENLIB_GET_REF_Y("r1", "a_0");
.
.
GENLIB_PHVIA(x, y, CONT_VIA);
/∗ Save that on disk ∗/
GENLIB_SAVE_PHFIG();
