Subject: Stupid Default DC Clock Settings And Tcl [get_object_name $thingy]
Dear Santa John,
I have been a very good boy this year and these are the things I wanted
for Christmas from Synopsys.
First, how come I always have to set_dont_touch or set_ideal or whatever for
my clock trees when you freely admit that Design Compiler can't balance
clock trees anyway? Couldn't it be the default to leave clock networks
ideal and use unset_dont_touch clk? Whew.
Second, why on earth would I ever want a reference to a list? Since there
is no pointer arithmetic or operations I could perform on it anyway, why
should I have to use [get_object_name $thingy] at all? Just give me a
function to get the reference [get_object_reference] and return the object
by default. I'll never use get_object_reference anyway. DuhHUH.
