Running LVS from command line?...

Ed is correct about doing the si -batch and it being si.env that
you need to create.
Whether you have the netlists or not though, I\'d run it via si rather
than trying to invoke LVS directly (because you have to get the arguments
right, get the rule file and so on).
So, what I\'ve always done is:
1. Create a directory
2. Create an si.env file (look at one from an interactive job run dir
to work out what to put in this file; it\'s quite straightforward)
3. si -batch <runDir
voila!

If you know what to put in the si.env file, you can create a LVS run
directory and use si -batch to generate the netlists and run LVS. If you
already have the netlists, you can simply run LVS. Try looking at the
si.env in the run directory created by an interactive run.

I just realized I cannot confirm that si.env is the correct file. It\'s
one of the files in the run directory. Experiment a little.

Openbook mentions that LVS can be run from the command line, but does
not give any details. Is there some documentation somewhere to tell how
to do this? I am using Cadence 4.4.6.

Thanks in advance,
