skill code check library exists cadence
first : I didn't install Assura yet

it means that you must find the display.drf file of your kit and follow the instructions in that box to merge it with your standard display.drf
I have placed the kit in my user folder in the home directory(like other user libraries; my friend told me to do so !), but the folder that I define as a library (as it contains the .cat files )exists within the kit main folder ( files as : display.drf , stream.map , umc13mmrf.tf exit in the main folder which isn't defined as a library).Also models are contained in a separate folder (but simulations are done , although process corners are done manually)

it *also* means that your design kit is not being initialized correctly, because it would take care of this.
1-When I opens the Display Resource Editor (Application = Virtuoso , Tech Lib Name = umc13mmrf ) , Layers = LSW :
I see ==> Fill style = black , Fill color = yellow , outline Color = yellow , . .
2-When I create a new library & attatch it to the technology , I get these in the Log window:
Loading umc13mmrf/libInit.il ...
Loading umc13mmrf/loadCxt.ile ...done!
Loading context 'umc13mmrf' from library 'umc13mmrf' ...done!

3-when I open Display Resources Tool Box, then use Merge ,I get this message:
then after OK, I get this window which I didn't understand how to deal with [what are the source files & destination files?](I have tried but I get failure messages)
When use Edit in Display Resources Tool Box:it opens the Display Resource Editor but it gives me a window that contains a list of packets that were not defined for device display.And conatains the instructions to modify a packet (DIFF , PWEL , TWEL , ..) manually !!!

what version of cadence are you using ? what design kit ?
I am using IC 5.1.41 & umc13mmrf design kit.[main folder called umc_013]
n1cm0c said:
are you launching cadence from the directory where the design kit library is ?
I opens a shell (that initiated at my home dir) & types icfb or icms , and so I am aunching cadence from the directory where the design kit library is .
n1cm0c said:
try icfb instead of icms (you get all cadence components loaded) and check if your .cdsinit file exists in your home dir.
All of the above is done using icfb , no .cdsinit doesn't exist in my home dir but a file with the same name exists in ..../tools.lnx86/dfII/cdsuser
I am very sorry for this long explain but , you know that sometimes a small thing could be the reason for a large problem.
Thanks a lot.
