V1.4.0 COREGEN:	What's new in the v1.4.0 release 


Problem Description:
Urgency: hot

General Description:
What's new in the v1.4.0 release?


Solution 1:



- Solaris v2.5.1 support. This is the first release that
   runs on workstations.
- Windows NT 4.0 support. Windows NT 4.0 is now fully
   supported.
- Spartan support. All modules can be targeted to Spartan
   parts.
- Faster startup and module generation. The 1.4.0 version of
   CORE Generator takes less time to start up, and less time
   to generate modules.
- Viewlogic interface integrated with Xilinx M1 software.
   WIR file generation is now accomplished using Xilinx M1
   executables. Both Xilinx M1 Implementation Tools and
   Viewlogic must be installed on your system for COREGen
   to generate the Viewlogic symbol and WIR files for the
   COREGen module.
   for this to work.


Note that not all modules shipped with the Alpha v3.0.x
release are included in the v1.4.0 release. See (Xilinx
Solution 3675) for the list of supported modules.

New cores will be supplied on the <a href=CORELINX web page.
