		<summary type="html">&lt;p&gt;Created page with &amp;quot;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Q: While looking at a Netlist, is there a clean way to look back at what VeriModule* or VhdlPrimaryUnit* this netlist was derived from? &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;  For example, a module:      mod...&amp;quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;'''Q: While looking at a Netlist, is there a clean way to look back at what VeriModule* or VhdlPrimaryUnit* this netlist was derived from? '''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For example, a module:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
    module mod();&lt;br /&gt;
    parameter WIDTH=2;&lt;br /&gt;
    ...&lt;br /&gt;
    endmodule&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
would elaborate to a netlist name \mod(WIDTH=2) or if instantiated with a different width \mod(WIDTH=4)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are &amp;quot;system&amp;quot; attributes attached to the Netlist that you may find useful. Note the leading space:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:key: &amp;quot; language&amp;quot;, value: one of &amp;quot;verilog&amp;quot; &amp;quot;vhdl&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
:key: &amp;quot; cell_name&amp;quot;, value: original module/unit name. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
See also Netlist::CellBaseName().&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once you get the original name of the module/unit, you can search the parse tree for it.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>
