Forum Post: RE: Instantiating instance from command line: no properties stored.

Hi Sjoerd, If you create an instance with dbCreateInst, it knows nothing about CDF, and so storeDefault is not honoured. It's a lower level API - that's how it is supposed to work. If you look at an instance without instance properties, and CDS_Netlisting_Mode is Analog, then doing inst~>paramName will retrieve the instance property if set, or the CDF default if not (this is a function of CDS_Netlisting_Mode Analog). So in general it's not necessary to set storeDefault=yes unless you really, really want the default to be stored on the instance (an example is when you have the CDF default different from the PCell default, which is generally best avoided unless you have a very good reason to). CCSinvokeCdfCallbacks (which is my code) won't enforce storing default values if they weren't on the instance already. So, if you really need default values on the instance, you should take care of that when you create the instances from SKILL. Or consider whether you really need storeDefault=yes at all. Regards, Andrew.
