This can be used as a list of ideas (list of rules, one or more for each setting DRU support). FYI, io_eagle already loads DRU files, so the low level, the parser is there. So questions are: 1. most relevant: where/why do you need this in practice, on production boards? Are you fabbing boards at that fab or another fab that provide DRU files? 2. are you willing to break down the DRU format into individual rules? (DRU itself has numeric fields, so "what exactly needs to be checked for a given field" is the translation to rule) 3. are you willing to test each rule implementation? >I did not see other ideas... Am I the first one ? Yes! I always got a measurable amount of drc related feature requests when we were only deaming about the new DRC and couldn't implement them. Now that we have the new DRC available, the feature requests stopped, lol. Best regards, Igor2
