Problem Title:
VIEWLOGIC PROFLOW 6.0: Will continue executing after Xilinx errors
occur.



Problem Description:
Xilinx PROflow does not stop processing if an error in a subtool occurs.

Because there is little interaction between Xilinx PROflow and the
executables that it calls, it cannot determine if a processing step has
completed successfully.  To this end, Xilinx PROflow must  always run every
step when processing a design.	This includes functional simulation,
synthesis translation, implementation, and timing simulation.


Solution 1:

Always review the output log files when processing to verify that
processing has occurred successfully.
