Many of you already received communications about the move of the Cadence user community into cadence.com. And many of you have already joined, with over 4000 registrations in the first two weeks.

The new Cadence Community enhances the ability of Cadence users to connect and collaborate. In addition to moving the community into cadence.com -- enabling single sign-on for community, Sourcelink and Cadence events -- the new site is organized around nine technology segments, giving you easy access to product information, training, forums and blogs. Some of the new features include:
  • Ability to respond to posts via e-mail
  • Technology-specific blogs
  • Latest Web 2.0 social networking capabilities
  • Public profile options
  • Private messaging
  • Friends lists
Visit the new Cadence Community today at www.cadence.com/community and join the discussions!

Registration note: Due to the scope of the enhancements and the new SSO registration system, we were not able to migrate existing cdnusers.org member accounts. So new registrations are required, but this enables a broader set of functionality we think you'll enjoy.

Forum note: Under the guidance of forum moderators, we have taken the 20+ cdnusers.org forums and consolidated them into 11 forums on the new site. Posts have been brought over so you can leverage that posting history. CDNusers forums will be set to read only starting 7/30, and cdnusers.org will be redirected to the new community on 8/4.

Best regards,
Mike and Tom

I have 4 components with the property PART_NUMBER= AD8362ARU in my design. To select them all at once, there is a skill function, axlSelectByProperty. it works for nets for example: p = axlSelectByProperty("net" LOGICAL_PATH") returns 472 DBIDs. Then, why axlSelectByProperty("compdef" "PART_NUMBER" "AD8362ARU") returns only one DBID not all 4? axlSelectByProperty("compdef" "PART_NUMBER") returns 112 item, axlSelectByProperty("compdef" "PART_NUMBER" "*AD8362ARU*" t) returns only one! Is it a bug? or a bad use...?

Subsidiary question, why carriage return(newline) are not correctly ddisplayed in messages I post in this forum?

There is only one "compdef" record (one component definition record) called AD8362ARU. There may be four, or four hundred, "compinst" records (instances of the component) but only one component definition record.

OK, so it's normal that I have only one DBID... with compdef.



In fact, I copy/paste the last try and then it was compdef.... but with component it should work.

axlSelectByProperty("component" "PART_NUMBER" "AD8362ARU") returns "nil"!


What's wrong?

there is 4 components with the property PART_NUMBER=AD8362ARU....


I found that with compdef (which returns only one), car(p)->components length is 4!

So I have my list... thanks.
