abnormal program termination
Solution 1:
Problem seems to be the input EDIF file. The EDIF file is
using '.' (dot) extensions. This currently causes problems
with M1.3.7.
Example of INVALID EDIF entry:
(instance (rename Test_SCH "Test.SCH")
(viewRef NetlistView
(cellRef Test)))
The current workaround is to edit the EDIF file by changing
the dots '.' to underscores '_'. The input EDIF file
should run successfully.
For the above example, the "Test.SCH" should be changed to
"TEST_SCH" as shown below:
(instance (rename Test_SCH "Test_SCH")
(viewRef NetlistView
(cellRef Test)))
