Problem Title:
Designs previously translated using GXILINX are not compatible with
Concept2xnf, compatibility with XACT 5.x



Problem Description:
Designs previously translated using GXILINX are not compatible with Concept2xnf

Versions:  Gxilinx v4.4-p1 and earlier, all versions of Concept2xnf

Platforms: Sun and HP


Solution 1:

GXILINX is the old translator used to translate the pre-Unified Concept schemati
cs to XNF.
If you are modifying a design that was done in 9403 or earlier Concept libraries
, you
must continue to use GXILINX to translate it.	Also make sure that you are
using the latest version of GXILINX (currently v4.4-p1).

You will also need to download the following
patch from Cadence Sourcelink or ftp.cadence.com to process the design with XACT
 5.x :

PICXilwXACT50.1.t.Z

On Sourcelink, it is accessed via this path:

On the ftp site, navigate to:	patches/9402/pic/PICXilwXACT50.1.t.Z
