Hello,
I am trying to run LVS on layout and schematic files both designed in OpenAccess (OA) using Cadence 6.1.4. I chose "OPENACCESS" format in layout and "export from schematic viewer" in schematic. I get an error message saying "ddMapGetFileViewType: You are trying to run a CDB executable on an OA library file 'sch.oa'." It seems like a schematic problem, not a layout problem. I could not find any option in Calibre to force it to import OA instead of CDB. I use Calibre v2008.4_28.20 and was wondering if this version does not support OA. Any help is appreciated!
Regards,
Wonyoung
Hi Wonyoung, I'm not expert at this but I seem to remember this once happened to someone and they fixed it by changing something about their $PATH variable. Maybe they had both IC51 and IC61 and by reversing the order it solved their problem? Hope it helps narrow the problem for you.
