GENLIB_COPY_UP_REF - copy a physical reference from an instance in the current figure

#include <genlib.h>
void GENLIB_COPY_UP_REF(refname, insname, newname)
char ∗refname, ∗insname, ∗newname;

See the file buster/alliance/alc_origin.1.en.gz.

Name of the reference in the instance
Name of the instance in the which the reference is to be searched for
Name to be given to the reference in the current figure

COPY_UP_REF adds a reference in the current layout cell. All the reference's attributes are copied from the first found reference called refname in the instance insname. The designer should avoid to give to several refences the same name if he plans to use this function. The new reference is given the name newname. The main purpose of this function is to copy a reference in the upper hierarchical level, so it can be used as virtual connector, for the data-path router. See dpr(1) for details. layout.

"GENLIB_COPY_UP_REF impossible : missing GENLIB_DEF_PHFIG"

No figure has been yet specified by a call to DEF_PHFIG. So it isn't possible to place a reference inside it. you must call DEF_PHFIG before any other layout action.
"illegal getphins : instance insname does not exist"
The instance called insname does not currently belong to the figure.
"GENLIB_COPY_UP_REF impossible : reference refname does not exist"
The reference refname does not exist in the model of the instance insname.
