\subsubsection{Name}

PlaceContact -- Places a contact

\subsubsection{Synopsys}

\begin{verbatim}
PlaceContact ( net, layer, point, width, height )
\end{verbatim}

\subsubsection{Description}

Placement of a contact.\\
\indent The contact is located at the coodinates of \verb-point-, on the layer \verb-layer- and has a size of 1 per 1. It belongs to the net \verb-net-.\\
\indent Note that the segment must be horizontal or vertival.
    
\subsubsection{Parameters}

\begin{itemize}
    \item \verb-net- : Net which the contact belongs to
    \item \verb-layer- : Layer of the segment.\\The \verb-layer- argument is a string wich can take different values, thanks to the technology (file described in HUR\_TECHNO\_NAME)

    \end{itemize}
    \item \verb-point- : Coodinates of the contact
    \item \verb-width- : Width of the contact
    \item \verb-height- : Height of the contact
\end{itemize}
    
\subsubsection{Example}

\begin{verbatim}
PlaceContact ( myNet, "ALU2", XY (10, 0), 2, 2 )
\end{verbatim}

\subsubsection{Errors}
    
Some errors may occur :
\begin{itemize}
    \item \verb-[Stratus ERROR] PlaceContact : Argument layer must be a string.-
    \item \verb-[Stratus ERROR] PlaceContact : Wrong argument,-\\\verb-the coordinates of the contact must be put in a XY object.-
\end{itemize}
