replace library names in schematic

gharryh1957
gharryh1957 over 6 years ago

Using exp-project-lbr.ulp will create alibrary from my project. But it doesnt replace the part directive in the schematic to the newly created libray.

 

Is there a way to do that??

    But if my project contains parts from 10 different libraries, must I then execute this command ten times??

    yes

     

    it could be automated using an ULP though.

    there might even be one around already.

    Go here

    http://eagle.autodesk.com/eagle/ulp

    and search for

    exp-lbrs-replace2.ulp

    This does what you want.

    In Bob Starr's words

     

    "I modified the export project ULP to allow exporting all parts into a

    single project specific library. BUT, the magic part is that it also

    generates a script you can run afterward to replace all parts in the

    schematic so they reference the newly created project specific library.

    I\'ve also updated the ULP so it now shows a list of all libraries used

    in a schematic and it allows selecting which library parts to

    export/replace. Now you can easily export and edit any of the parts in

    any of your designs within a single project specific library on the fly!"

    If you are using any of the more recent versions of EAGLE since mid v8 then the built in exp-lbrs.ulp which ships with EAGLE and accessible from File->Export->Libraries incorporates all this functionality and also fixes some incompatibilities caused by the addition of managed libraries. You should use that instead.
