NAME

       addlosig - create a logical signal

       Paris, France.

SYNOPSYS

       #include "mlo.h"
       losig_list *addlosig(ptfig, index, namechain, type)
       lofig_list *ptfig;
       long index;
       chain_list *namechain;
       char type;

PARAMETERS

       ptfig		   Pointer to the figure in which the signal should be added

       index		   Signal index

       namechain	   List of names of the signal

       type		   Signal type

DESCRIPTION

       addlosig creates a new signal, and adds it to the list of signals pointed to by ptfig->LOSIG. The new signal is added in front of the list,
       and becomes itself the list head.
       The type parameter can take two values :

	      EXTERNAL		  The signal is attached to at least one connector of the figure.

	      INTERNAL		  The signal is only attached to instance or transistor connector.
       The  index and type arguments fill the INDEX and TYPE fields of the losig(3) structure. The index is the signal identifier, so it should be
       unique at a given hierarchical level.
       The namechain argument is a list of names, given in a chain_list.  See chain(3) for details.

RETURN VALUE

       addlosig returns a pointer to the newly created signal.

ERRORS

       "*** mbk error *** addlosig impossible signal index already exist in figure ptfig->NAME"
	      The index is already used in an other signal, and since it's the signal identifier, it can't be.

EXAMPLE

       #include "mlo.h"
       losig_list *merge_and_create(pt, s0, s1) /* merge two signal in a third */
       lofig_list *pt;
       losig_list *s0, *s1;
       {
       chain_list *c;
       losig_list *s;
       long max_index;
	  /* merge names */
	  for (c = s0->NAMECHAIN; c; c = c->NEXT)
	     s1->NAMECHAIN = addchain(s1->NAMECHAIN, c);
	  /* find maximum index */
	  for (s = pt->LOSIG; s; s = s->NEXT)
	     if (max_index < s->INDEX)
		max_index = s->INDEX;
	  s = addlosig(pt, ++max_index, s1->NAMECHAIN,
		s0->TYPE == EXTERNAL || s1->TYPE == EXTERNAL ?
		EXTERNAL : INTERNAL);
	  dellosig(pt, s0);
	  dellosig(pt, s1);
	  return s;
       }

NAME

       lofigchain - creates a netlist in terms of connectors on signals

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.

SYNOPSYS

       #include "mlo.h"
       void lofigchain(ptfig)
       lofig_list *ptfig;

PARAMETER

       ptfig		   Pointer to a lofig_list

DESCRIPTION

       The lofigchain function creates the dual representation of natural mbk netlists. In mbk, netlists are described in terms of signal attached
       to  connectors.	 With lofigchain, one can have the dual sight : connectors attached to signals.  This can be very useful, depending on the
       application, but it's also memory consuming on big netlists, since two views of the same thing are present in memory at the same time.

       The information resulting of a call to lofigchain is present  in  the  USER  field  of  all  signals  of  the  figure,  accessible  through
       ptfig->LOSIG.  The USER field has a ptype typed LOFIGCHAIN, that points on a chain_list whose DATA points on each locon beeing connected to
       the given signal.

ERROR

       "*** mbk error *** lofigchain impossible : figure ptfig->NAME is interface only"
	      In order to be valid, the netlist resulting of a call to lofigchain must be done on a figure entirely loaded in  ram.  See  getlofig
	      for details.

EXAMPLE

       #include "mut.h"
       #include "mlo.h"
       void print_netlist(p)
       lofig_list *p;
       {
       losig_list *s;
       chain_list *c;
	  lofigchain(p);
	  for (s = p->LOSIG; s; s = s->NEXT){
	     (void)fprintf(stdout, "signal : index = %ld name = %s
",
		   s->INDEX, getsigname(s));
	     c = (chain_list *)(getptype(s->USER, (long)LOFIGCHAIN)->DATA);
	     while (c) {
		fprintf(stdout, "conname : %s
",
		   (locon_list *)(c->DATA)->NAME);
		c = c->NEXT;
	     }
	  }
       }
