Ways to Create an Array
There are several ways to create an array in OpenROAD:
• When you create global array variables
You create these variables using OpenROAD Workbench.
• When you create local array variables
You create these variables with a declaration statement in a frame or field script.
• When you create a table field in OpenROAD Workbench, an associated array variable is automatically created.
This default array has the same name as the table field and its attributes are identical to the columns in the table field. You can specify additional array attributes by specifying an underlying user class.
For more information about creating variables and table fields, see the Workbench User Guide.
