Patent ID: 8539432

Claim:
A computer-readable recording medium storing a program that causes a computer to execute a circuit design process comprising: selecting component data in first board data from among the first board data including first connector component data and second board data including second connector component data that is associated with the first connector component data; acquiring, when a first connection destination net name of the selected component data is identical to a connection destination net name of a first terminal of the first connector component data, a connection destination net name for a second terminal of the second connector component data that corresponds to the first terminal; converting the connection destination net name of the first terminal to a second connection destination net name of the component data that is not associated with the first connector component data; setting the connection destination net name of the second terminal of the second connector component data to a net name different from a net name within the second board data; and setting, when the component data is moved from the first board data to the second board data, the acquired connection destination net name to the first connection destination net name of the component data, and setting the net name given to the second terminal to the second connection destination net name of the component data.
