Finding error in spectre

[Hugo Miguel Franca Santos]

Hi,

I'm trying to simulate a big analogue circuit with spectre and I get this
error message:

Error found by spectre in '_sub35', during circuit read-in.
"input.scs" 577: Statement is not in Spectre format.

So my question is what is the '_sub35' and how can I find it in my
schematics.
Thanks a lot!
Hugo

Is this a black-box instance that includes a netlist in spice format into a
netlist in spectre format?

You can probably not find _sub35 in your schematic because the netlister has
remapped it during the netlisting phase. I would suggest to go into the
netlist directory on the command line and run the following command:

find . -exec grep -l _sub35 {} \;

This would give you all file names containing _sub35. The interesting ones
are in the amap dir. There you can find which cell has a name that the
netlister remaps for whatever reason.
