Eldo Netlist Setup
Protection of Encrypted Libraries
The ty_lib_status type and the function prototypes are defined in the eldo_ipprotect.h include
file, shown below. This is provided in the $MGC_AMS_HOME/include folder. The various
return values and their meanings are explained in the comments.
The compilation command for the shared library is as follows:
gcc -I$MGC_AMS_HOME/include (...other include folders...)
-o -shared
This library does not need to be recompiled with each new version of Eldo unless this is
explicitly stated in the release notes of a new version.
