SDT 4.xx gives error: 'library header is incorrect'


Record #278

Product Family:  Software

Product Line:  OrCad

Problem Title:
SDT 4.xx gives error: 'library header is incorrect'


Problem Description:
After installing the XACT 5 unified libraries, the following error occurs
when invoking OrCad SDT 4.xx:

	library header is incorrect for c:\xact\xc4000\XC4000.lib


Solution 1:

The unified libraries shipped with XACT 5 are in the OrCad 386+ 32 bit
format.  These libraries are not compatible with OrCad 4.xx.  Source files
for the libraries exist on the 5.1.x and 5.2/6.0 CD-ROMs in a zip file
called ORCSRC.zip in the XBBS subdirectory,  but Xilinx does not reccommend
or support using OrCAD 4 with the unified libraries.
