The hyperlynx file is read using a bison/flex scanner. The flex scanner
is in hyp_l, the bison parser in hyp_y.y. For each hyperlynx construct
the parser calls the corresponding exec_* routine in parser.c. Example:
if the parser encounters an arc segment, the symbol in the scanner/parser
is H_ARC, and the routine in parser.c is called exec_arc().
If you need a rough description of the hyperlynx format, download
"bird33" from http://www.ibis.org/birds/bird33.txt . Substitute ".IBP
file format" with ".HYP file format" and "SUBSTRATE_OUTLINE" with "BOARD"
and you have an (old) description of the hyperlynx format.
Not all CAD programs create compliant .hyp files. The most common
omission is not putting quotes around a string. This causes problems if
the string contains blank space or commas.
If you change scanner or parser you need to revalidate. Try loading a
collection of hyperlynx files generated by diverse CAD programs.
The python script "gensamp" creates a sample hyperlynx file which
contains line, arc and unrouted segments, polygons with and without
holes, polylines, etc.
