Tip
Export to Part Library option is available
depending on the design entry tool selected as the
schematic editor in the Options dialog box. To display the
Options dialog box, choose Options from the Tools menu.
3. In the Enter Input Model Library text box, specify the location of
the model library for which the design entry tool parts are to be
created.
Note: You can use the Browse button to specify a different
location of the .OLB or .LIB file.
The Enter Output Part Library text box automatically displays
the name and the location of the new .OLB file (in Capture) or
the folder (in Design Entry HDL where you want library files to be
created. The displayed library name or folder name is same as
specified by the user in the Save Part To section of the
OPTIONS dialog box.
4. Click OK to create the part and click OK again to clear the .ERR
log dialog box.
Caution
Recreating an already existing part library, using the
Export to Part Library command
does not overwrite the contents of the part library.
Only the new parts are appended to the library.
Consider a part library, MYLIB.OLB that has two
parts a1 and a2, and a model library, MYLIB.LIB
that has three models a2, b1, and b3. Recreating
MYLIB.OLB from MYLIB.LIB will not delete a1 from
MYLIB.OLB. The modified MYLIB.OLB has four
parts, a1, a2, b1, and b2.
In Design Entry HDL:
The part library is created with the same name as the .lib file.
Each model in the .lib file is represented as a separate folder,
with the folder name same as the model name.
