XDRAW/Xsimmake: Invalid KeyWord 'WINDOW_BACKGROUND'


Record #1315

Product Family: Software

Product Line: ViewLogic

Product Part: Workview Office

Product Version: 7.2

Problem Title:
XDRAW/Xsimmake: Invalid KeyWord 'WINDOW_BACKGROUND'


Problem Description:
If the XDRAW.OUT log file (XDRAW is one of the programs called by XSimmake)
indicates an invalid keyword in the viewdraw.ini, then it may be due to using
a viewdraw.ini from WorkView Office, and not ProSeries. The viewdraw.ini
from Workview Office may contain several keywords XDRAW will not recognize.
Such keywords as "WINDOW_BACKGROUND" or "BEGIN_NETS_IN_SPACE" will cause
these XDRAW errors.


Solution 1:

Use the viewdraw.ini from Xilinx-Viewlogic Interface. There is a default
viewdraw.ini in the \PROSER\STANDARD directory on the CD. Place this file
in your \WVOFFICE\STANDARD directory and resave your project from the
Workview Office Project Manager.



Solution 2:

Comment out any offending line in the viewdraw.ini file with a |.
