DBCLEAN(1ICD)

NAME
dbclean - remove secondary data from ICD data base

SYNOPSIS
dbclean [-elcfvV] [cell ...]

PARAMETERS

cell
    Process only the named cells, but only when they are not in the "exp_dat" file. If this argument is not specified, all cells are processed, and the "exp_dat" file is removed.

OPTIONS

-e  Process all cells except those that are in the "exp_dat" file. If cell parameters are specified, it is not necessary to specify this option too.

-l  Process only the layout view.

-c  Process only the circuit view.

-f  Process only the floorplan view.

-v  Verbose mode.

-V  Verbose mode. Informs for the layout view which streams are removed.

DESCRIPTION
Dbclean is a program to remove redundant and/or derived streams from the database, to save space when the design is ready.

For the layoutview, all streams except the box, info, mc, nor and term streams are removed.

For the circuitview, the stream sls.b is removed.

For the floorplan view, no streams are currently removed.

Additionally, the following files are removed from the data base: procesdata1, procesdata2, stretchdata, maskdata, nbooldata.

BUGS
The list of streams to be removed should be specified in a customizable file somewhere in the system instead of being hard-coded in the program.
