db_get_design()

Returns a handle to the named design. If the design is not in memory, it is read in. Returns NULL if design is not found.

Syntax:

db_get_design(designName);

where

designName is the name of the design to read in. If a full path is not supplied, the program searches the PDE_LIB environment path for the named design.

Note If a second argument is given (e.g. db_get_design(designName, 0)), only the first argument is recognized as the designName and the second argument is ignored.

Example:

decl designHandle;
designHandle = db_get_design ("myamp");
