A method of checking an integrated circuit design database includes providing the integrated circuit design stored in a storage media; providing application rules; and providing an instance abstract of instances of libraries and IP(s). Instance-level information is extracted from the integrated circuit design database. An application-rule check is performed against the instance-level information using the information provided in an abstract file.
