dbCreateNet using itkDB

[sg]

Hello Guys,

using itkDB, I create a net, say "I5u<5>", using dbCreateNet C API, in
a layout cell view. when I query that net in icfb 5141 framework, I
find it created as "I5u#3c5#3e". I don't know how and where "<" and
">" bus chars converted into its ascii equivalent. When I query
"I5u<5>" using dbFindNetByName, it returns nil, and if query
"I5u#3c5#3e", it returns valid db id.

If I use corresponding skill api "dbCreateNet", there is no such
conversion. Is there any way to make dbCreateNet in itkDB, not to do
this auto conversion of "I5u<5>" to "I5u#3c5#3e"?

Thanks, and Regards,

I don't see this problem. In my code I do:


netId=dbCreateNet( cvId , "myNet",NULL);
printf("netId from creating net 'myNet' is %d\n",netId);
netId=dbCreateNet( cvId , "myBus<1>",NULL);
printf("netId from creating net 'myBus<1>' is %d\n",netId);
netId=dbCreateNet( cvId , "I5u<5>",NULL);
printf("netId from creating net 'I5u<5>' is %d\n",netId);
netId=dbCreateNet( cvId , "I5u<5>",NULL);
printf("netId from creating net 'I5u<5> again' is %d\n",netId);
netId=dbCreateNet( cvId , "I5u<6>",NULL);
printf("netId from creating net 'I5u<6>' is %d\n",netId);

dbSave( cvId );
dbClose(cvId);

And the program prints:

netId from creating net 'myNet' is 140952736
netId from creating net 'myBus<1>' is 140952812
netId from creating net 'I5u<5>' is 140952892
netId from creating net 'I5u<5> again' is 0
netId from creating net 'I5u<6>' is 140952968
*WARNING* : Already exists - I5u<5>

(I tried recreating the same net multiple times, just in case).

If I open it in icfb afterwards, I get:

cv~>nets~>name
("I5u<6>" "I5u<5>" "myBus<1>" "myNet")

Andrew.
