NAME

       mlodebug - logical data structure contents debug function

SYNOPSYS

       #include "mlo.h"
       void mlodebug(headpointer, structurename)
       void *headpointer;
       char *structurename;

PARAMETER

       headpointer	   Pointer to a structure to be displayed

       structurename	   Name of the structure to be explored

DESCRIPTION

       mlodebug allows a user interactive visualisation of the internal contents of the structural view of mbk.
       Through the use of a small, but convenient, textual user interface, a step by step exploration of each fields of the data structure is made
       available.  However, if the structure is big, it may be painful to use.
       First  of  all,	the  contents  of the expected struture is displayed, with its fields named as they appear in the appropriate header file.
       Then the user is prompted by a `>>' for an input.
       The input may be either a field name, or a predefined symbol.  Field names are to be typed the way they are displayed.
       Predefined symbols are:

       _exit		   that quit the current debugging session.

       _up		   that comes back to the previous structure.

       _top		   returns to the root of the function invocation.

       _stop		   puts kind of a tag at the current position in the structure.  It will be available later on to return to this position.

       _back		   returns to the previous _stop position.

       The debugger functions are easy to understand, so just try it!

EXAMPLE

       #include "mlo.h"
       void scan_n1_y()
       {
	  getlofig("n1_y", 'A');
	  mlodebug(HEAD_LOFIG, "lofig");
       }

GETLOFIG(3)						   MBK LOGICAL UTILITY FUNCTIONS					       GETLOFIG(3)

NAME

       getlofig - give back a pointer to a lofig

ORIGIN

       This  software  belongs	to  the  ALLIANCE CAD SYSTEM developed by the ASIM team at LIP6 laboratory of Universite Pierre et Marie CURIE, in
       Paris, France.

       Web : http://asim.lip6.fr/recherche/alliance/
       E-mail : alliance-users@asim.lip6.fr

SYNOPSYS

       #include "mlo.h"
       lofig_list *getlofig(figname, mode)
       char *figname;
       char mode;

PARAMETERS

       figname		   Name of the figure to be created

       mode		   Demanded mode for the figure

DESCRIPTION

       getlofig returns a pointer to the figure called figname with the warranty that the expected information is present in memory.
       If mode is 'A' then the figure has all its lists filled, else the figure may either be complete or interface only.
       This function allows to completly mask disk access for applications programs. If the figure is in memory, with the specified mode, then the
       function  returns  the appropriate pointer. Else, the function performs a call to the loadlofig(3) and returns a pointer to the loaded fig-
       ure.

RETURN VALUE

       getlofig returns a pointer to the wanted figure.

ERRORS

       getlofig cannot give any errors, but the subsequent calls it performs to parsers do. So the source of trouble may be the call to  getlofig.
       See loadlofig(3) for details.

EXAMPLE

       #include "mlo.h"
       lofig_list *na2_y()
       {
	  /* find in memory or load from disk na2_y */
	  return getlofig("na2_y", 'A');
       }
