XNFMERGE 5.2.1: INTERNAL ERROR: 293


Record #2050

Product Family: Software

Product Line: XACT FPGA

Product Part: xnfmerge

Product Version: 5.2.1

Problem Title:
XNFMERGE 5.2.1: INTERNAL ERROR: 293


Problem Description:
Urgency: standard

General Description:

   XNFMERGE is invoked on the design, and yields the message:

INTERNAL ERROR: 293: Please contact Xilinx Technical Support.
      Please provide the following details to the support personnel:

      1: I293
      2: 8192

The error message that XNFMERGE is reporting is due to the fact that there is greater than 1024 file s incorporated in the
design. XNFMERGE stores a reference to every netlist in the design in a fixed-size array so that it
  put numbered HIERG records and symbol attributes into the output file. These records and attribute
s are used by XNFMAP (with using it's -a or -q options) to reconstruct the design hierarchy so it ca n do mapping within hierarchy boundaries. This was done to maintain the functionality of the old "m ap-then-merge" function that was originally done with multiple invocations of XNFMERGE and XNFMAP.


Solution 1:

If you aren't going to use these map=then=merge options in XNFMAP, then you don't need to have these
  records in the output of XNFMERGE. You can turn off XNFMERGE's function with the -f command-line sw
itch.
