JTAG Programmer - Part is not an SPROM, usercode cannot be specified on the command line, will be ignored


Record #3362

Problem Title:
JTAG Programmer - Part is not an SPROM, usercode cannot be specified on the command line, will be ignored



Problem Description:
Urgency: Standard

General description:

JTAG Programmer warning message: "Part is not an SPROM, usercode
cannot be specified on the command line, will be ignored."


Solution 1:

Under certain conditions, an invalid option is passed from the GUI
front-end to the core engine when executing an FPGA operation. The core
engine recognizes the invalid option, generates the above warning
message, and proceeds with the operation all the while ignoring the
invalid option. Because the invalid option is ignored, no harm is done.

For Virtex programming, this warning message does not halt the
program operation. The program operation correctly proceeds to
completion after this warning.
