Command Reference2. FPGA Express Shell Commandsimport_constraint _N_A_M_E import_constraint Import a contraint file. SYNTAX string import_constraint -file _f_i_l_e__n_a_m_e string _f_i_l_e__n_a_m_e ARGUMENTS -file _f_i_l_e__n_a_m_e This option specifies the name of the input constraint file. DESCRIPTION This comand imports and reads an FPGA Express constraints file and enters the performance constraints, attributes, and optimization options directly onto the current chip. Objects in the constraint file are referred to by their hierarchical names, so only objects in the current chip with matching hierarchical names will be annotated. EXAMPLES Read the constraint from the file am2910.exc. fe_shell > import_constraint -file am2910.exc SEE ALSO object(2),current_chip(2), v3.0 Synopsys Inc. 1988-1998. All rights reserved. 2-1
