M1.3 MAP: ERROR: BLKNM parameter not supported on WAND symbol (4K family)


Record #2366

Product Family:  Software

Product Line:  Merged Core

Problem Title:
M1.3 MAP: ERROR: BLKNM parameter not supported on WAND symbol (4K
family)



Problem Description:
Keywords: MAP, BLKNM, DECODE, WAND

Urgency: Standard

Reference: 12798

Description
This error message is misleading because BLKNM properties
actually ARE supported on regular Wired AND functions.

The real problem is that BLKNM properties are not valid
on WANDs which have a DECODE parameter attached to the WAND
symbol.  The DECODE parameter places the WAND components into
Wide Edge Decoders during the implementation stage, and it is
on Wide Decoders that BLKNMs are not supported.



Solution 1:

Use the LOC attribute if user wants to place the WAND into a wide edge decoder u
sing the DECODE parameter.
