Re: Changing of library list in command line

Dear all,

is it possible to change the library list if i execute the powergen from a batch file ?

The reason why I need to do is I have a set of standard library. on top of that, each customer will have custom library which should be place on top of the standard library list , regenerate and build the library.

I managet to create a batch file to automate the generation of the standard library. but still looking for a way to add the library list to standard library.

I have think of creating a powergen project per customer which standard library will generate all the pbd but for those powergen project by customer , only will generate the pbd for customer. in such case I will need to have 100 powergen project if i have 100 customer. and it might take long time to fully rebuild. currently , I need around one hours to rebuild and regenerate the full set of standard library.

Please help.

thanks in advance.

Hello,

Sorry to have left your message unanswered for so long.  I'll think about this and get back to you on Monday.

Re: Changing of library list in command line

Although there may be a way to do this with standard command line calls,  I think the best way to do this is to modify a single PowerGen project file, programmatically.  You would have a script that loops through the 100 customers, and in each iteration replacing the first customer PBL with the next's customer's PBL.

The format of the PowerGen project file is documented and any number of scripting languages would let you do this fairly easily.  Let me know if you need more information or help.
