While a geda-newbie, over the years I've developed a set of programs which
use a (Postgresql-based) database to update and error check schematics
originating
in a DOS-based OrCAD. I would like to have similar capabilities in gschem/pcb.
A key requirement is to be able to read and write component information
(attributes)
by external programs.
** Where/how can an external program read and/or write component attributes?? **
I've done a moderate search in the geda documentation to find suitable
hooks/API/
other mechanism which would allow this. <gattrib> doesn't do it - it provides
a nice mechanism for hand-entry, but doesn't (in my quick check) seem to
provide
any mechanism for program control.
If anyone can provide pointers to the documents that I have sloppily overlooked,
I'd appreciate it. Thanks!
Frank Miles
