Re: cadence to oa

Hi Nav & All,

IC 5.1.41 comes with an OA stream as well.
I'm using the following version :
icfb -V --> @[EMAIL PROTECTED]
(#)$CDS: icfb.exe version 5.1.2 11/21/2005 23:04
(cicln03) $
icfb -W --> sub-version 5.12.41_USR3.27.30

To check whether your stream is CDBA or OA, you have just to type in
the following command into your unix prompt :
UNIX > getDBType
--> This will return : OPENACCESS for the above case.

When I switch to cadence 5.10.41.500.5.98, the getDBType unix command
returns : CDBA

So if your IC5 stream is an OA, you should find the cdb2oa script in
your CDS instal dir :
This is an example of what I have in my case :

../5.12.41_USR3.27.30/tools.lnx86/dfII/etc/cdb2oa
../5.12.41_USR3.27.30/tools.lnx86/dfII/bin/32bit/cdb2oa.exe
../5.12.41_USR3.27.30/tools.lnx86/dfII/bin/32bit/cdb2oail
../5.12.41_USR3.27.30/tools.lnx86/dfII/bin/cdb2oa
../5.12.41_USR3.27.30/tools.lnx86/dfII/bin/cdb2oail
../5.12.41_USR3.27.30/tools.lnx86/dfII/bin/cdb2oa.exe
../5.12.41_USR3.27.30/tools.lnx86/dfII/bin/64bit/cdb2oa.exe
../5.12.41_USR3.27.30/tools.lnx86/dfII/bin/64bit/cdb2oail

The problem with this version of IC5 is that the sup****ted OA version
is 2.0 and not 2.2.
When typing the following skill command into the CIW :
dbGetBuildInfo()
--> I get : "@[EMAIL PROTECTED]
(#)$OpenAccess: 02.00 s135 10/27/05 14:17 (cds125713) $"

So if you pass through this IC 5, you most likely need to run a cdb2oa
and then dfIIoa20222 to convert your OA 2.0 into OA 2.2
My IC6/cdb2oa/dfIIoa20222 experience is very weak so I prefer to let
other folks to share their experience.

Riad.
