[PCB_FORUM] Re: Rename schematic cell in Allegro Design Entry HDL

still looking for a solution :)

2006/9/28, Patrick Escher <patrick.escher@xxxxxxxxx>: 

Hello ,

I am trying to find a way to rename a cell in Allegro Design Entry HDL and
updating all the references.
For example, I have a design root dsp which instantiates the cell rom and
schematic.
I now want to rename the cell rom to rom_1 and update all the references.

I did'nt find any hint in the documentation ( besides cdscopyshell, which
does no run on Windows), so I suppose that this can only be done using
skill.
So I would loop through the hierarchies of the schematics and
update/replace the cell rom with rom_1. That should work, hence it is some
effort.
But what about e.g. the variant file or other files like the opf etc. this
also needs to be updated manually, so this will become a pain :(

Does anybody know an already existing solution on how to do this ?

Thanks in Advance

Patrick
