[SOLVED] what is "w_windowId"

[egx]

i am trying to learn skill scripting nowadays and i am very new.
for some functions i need value of w_windowId.
i dont know what is it. its described as "Object ID of the window containing the cellview"

how can i learn that id?
thanks

"w_windowId" -- by default -- is the current window. To display the database object ID, in the CIW type:
getWindowCellView(w_windowId) or:
getWindowCellView()

s. e.g. cādence' Custom Layout SKILL Functions Reference, p. 468 (Product Version 5.1.41, Nov. 2004)

getWindowCellView() doesnt work. it says undefined function.
here smo had the same problem.

but no answers. if you could give examples that would be easy to understand.

WHat version of cadence you use? They changed quite a bit of skill in 615 and some of it is not correctly documented...
and also try using: geGetWindowCellView()

hiGetCurrentWindow()
