GENLIB_DEF_PHINS.3(October 1, 1997)	     GENLIB_DEF_PHINS.3(October 1, 1997)

NAME
     GENLIB_DEF_PHINS - define a new reference instance

SYNOPSIS
     #include <genlib.h>
     void GENLIB_DEF_PHINS(instancename);
     char *instancename;

PARAMETERS
     instancename	 Defines  the  instance  called  instancename as the new
			 "reference instance"

DESCRIPTION
     DEF_PHINS define the new "reference instance", used as  starting  point  in
     the relative placement functions of genlib. It's regarding the abutment box
     of  the instance instancename that the next instance is going to be placed,
     if using the appropriate functions. Notice that the  more	recently  placed
     instance becomes automatically the "reference instance", if DEF_PHINS isn't
     called.

ERRORS
     "GENLIB_DEF_PHINS impossible : missing GENLIB_DEF_PHFIG"
	    No figure has been yet specified by a call to DEF_PHFIG. So it isn't
	    possible to refer to an instance inside it.  you must call DEF_PHFIG
	    before any other layout action.
     "instance instancename doesn't exist in current figure"
	    The  instance  instancename hasn't currently been placed in the fig-
	    ure, so it's impossible do to any placement from it.

EXAMPLE
     #include <genlib.h>
     main()
     {
	  /* Create a figure to work on  */
	  GENLIB_DEF_PHFIG("cell");
	  /* Place an instance */
	  GENLIB_PLACE("model","i1", NOSYM,0L,0L);
	  GENLIB_PLACE("model","i2", NOSYM,120L,40L);
	  GENLIB_DEF_PHINS("i1");
	  GENLIB_PLACE_TOP("model2", "i3", NOSYM);
	  GENLIB_DEF_AB(0, 0, 0, 0);
	  /* Save all that on disk */
	  GENLIB_SAVE_PHFIG();
     }
