Allegro netlist generators does not work as expected
Description
The netlist for Allegro, exported by Kicad 9.0.6 requires some corrections to make it working
I show the netlist generated from a very simple schematic where four equal resistors are put in parallel. The value field is "0R22 1%" and the fooprint field is "myFootprint"
(NETLIST) (Source: C:\temp\SameComponents.kicad_sch) (Date: 2026-01-27T23:32:38+0100) $PACKAGES ! '0r22_1__myfootprint' ! ''0R22 1%'' ; R1, R2, R4 $A_PROPERTIES 'ROOM' '/' ; R1, R2, R3, R4 $NETS 'NET-(R1-PAD1)'; R1.1, R2.1, R3.1, R4.1 'NET-(R1-PAD2)'; R1.2, R2.2, R3.2, R4.2 $END
What I have to correct in order to make it OK for importing
-
the "''" has to be sobstitute with "'"
-
I had to add R3 between R2 & R3 (just after ''0R22 1%'')
With complex netlists the missing components are more.
Steps to reproduce
- put four equal resistors in parallel with the fields shown above (value = "0R22 1%" and footprint field = "myFootprint"
- Generate the netlist (export ->netlist (select allegro tab)
- look the file generated
