Syntax update_timing_netlist [-h | -help] [-long_help] [-full]
Arguments -h | -help Short help
-long_help Long help with examples and possible return values
-full Forces creation of an updated timing netlist to ensure correctness
Description
Updates and applies SDC commands to the timing netlist.  The
update_timing_netlist command expands and validates generated clocks,
warns about sources in the design that require clock settings,
identifies and removes combinational loops, and warns about undefined
input/output delays.

Most Tcl commands (e.g., report_timing) automatically update the
timing netlist when necessary.  You can use the update_timing_netlist
command explicitly to control when updating occurs, or to force a full
update using the -full option.
