post netlist, pre run hook?

[danmc]

Is there a simple way to cause cadence to invoke a custom function at
the end of the netlisting process? In other words in the analog design
environment I'd like "netlist and run" to do the following:


netlist
run my custom skill code
run

and "netlist recreate" to do:

netlist
run my custom skill code

I'm using the analog design environment and spectre if that makes a
difference.

Thanks

Have a look at my post 'how to customize Artist menus'
http://www.designers-guide.org/Forum/YaBB.pl?num=1139434902/3#3

In general you have to write a wrapper function

myNetListAndRunWrapper {
netlist
run my custom skill code
run
}

And implement it in the Artist menu in the way described by the link,
the same for "netlist recreate".

This looks like it will work. My wrappers are getting called. One
last hurdle for me though. Anyone know how I can get the netlist
directory? For example
/home/me/simulation/MyCell/spectre/myview/netlist ?
