pcb_backannotate − backannotates changes from a PCB annotation file to schematic |
pcb_backannotate −h|−−help pcb_backannotate −V|−−version pcb_backannotate [options] ecofile.eco infile1.sch [infile2.sch ...] |
The pcb_backannotate program reads an engineering change order (ECO) file generated by the PCB program and backannotates the requested changes to a gschem schematic or schematics. Refer to the PCB manual for a complete description of the ECO file format. |
−h, −−help |
prints help message and exits |
−n, −−nocopy |
Leave the modified schematic files in new files whose names are generated by appending .new to the original file names. The default is to overwrite the original. |
−v, −−verbose |
operate verbosely |
−V, −−version |
prints version information and exits |
pcb_backannotate will return 0 if all files processed successfully, non-zero if the command did not complete successfully. |
Rather than parsing and processing schematic files directly, this utility should be rewritten using the gEDA scheme API. This would take advantage of the existing parsers for the schematic files. |
