XNF2WIR Error 10: Unknown record type 'bsm(X).xnf'.


Record #751

Product Family: Software

Product Line: ViewLogic

Product Part: xnf2wir

Product Version: 5.2

Problem Title:
XNF2WIR Error 10: Unknown record type 'bsm(X).xnf'.


Problem Description:
When running xsimmake functional flow, if the versions of the Core tools,
and the Viewlogic Interface don't match, then xnf2wir can give error 10:
Unknown record type 'bsm(X).xnf'.

This can happen if the XACT directory(DS502) has been updated to version 5.2,
but the Viewlogic Interface tools (DS391) are still version 5.1 or 5.0.


Solution 1:

Check the xsimmake.out to find out which versions of all the programs are
being executed.

Make sure that environment is set so that it is running version 5.2 for both
DS391(Viewlogic interface), and DS502(FPGA core tools).
