No. not really. What you're seeing is the bin directory of a
Cadence OpenAccess installation.
For products that read/write OA, what Cadence does is give
you an installation of OpenAccess libraries, plus some stand-
alone utilities. This is what you're seeing.
Then in turn, you install the product in question, (Virtuoso, or
PVS, or SOC Encounter) and it points at the OA installation.
Depending on how you install, the OA part of the might
happen more or less automagically, but that is still what's
going on under the hood.
I guess if you're clever, you could use strm2oa to generate
OA layout, but I don't think that's what you're trying to do.
