Sun4 version of Muncher fails with usage error


Record #665

Product Family:  Software

Product Line:  EPLD Core

Problem Title:
Sun4 version of Muncher fails with usage error


Problem Description:
While fitting an XEPLD design, the following error may be reported:

 Munching unused logic resources
 usage:  muncher [-options ...]

 where options include:
     -display host:dpy		X server to use
     -geometry geom	      size of window
     -r 		      use root window
     -s seed		      random seed value
     -v 		      verbose mode
     -q 		      quiet mode

Errors found by MUNCHER! Please examine the '<design>.log' file
for details. Retry after fixing errors.


Solution 1:

The search path may be pointing to the muncher program in the
/usr/openwin/demo or /usr/bin/X11 directories.

Type "which muncher" to verify the location of the muncher program
being used.  Modify the path so that the directory containing the XEPLD
executables is before the /usr/openwin/demo or /usr/bin/X11 directory.
