Allegro Constraint Compiler User Guide Allegro Constraint Compiler October 2019 19 Product Version 17.4-2019 © 1999-2019 All Rights Reserved. Column Header Description Net Selection The Nets or Signals column entries are limited to XNet/Net objects, which can be selected in the design using explicit net names or with a partial net name and a number range specified within curly brackets {n-n}. For more complex net name selection regular expressions are also supported and if the net name contains a square bracket, then a forward slash "\" can be used to treat it like a regular character. If selecting all XNet/net members for group assignment, which are already members of a different type of group (Net Class, Net Groups, Differential Pairs), then the existing group gets added to the newly created group. For example, ■ Selecting all members of a Net Group to create a Net Class, the Net Group object gets added to the Net Class ■ Select both members of a Differential Pair for addition to a Net Class, the Differential Pair object gets added to the Net Class Objects created by the compiler are labeled with an 'A' indicated as auto-generated objects in Constraint Manager.
