Problem Title:
V1.5, V1.4.0 COREGEN: COREGen may create .VHX, XNF(v1.4)/EDN(v1.5) and .XSF output files even when not directed to do so



Problem Description:
Urgency: standard

General Description:
COREGen may create .VHX, XNF (or EDN) and .XSF output files
even when not directed to do so.


Solution 1:


Selecting the "XNF Implementation Netlist" (v1.4 only), "Edif
Implementation Netlist (v1.5), "VHDL Instantiation Template",
"Verilog Instantiation Template" or "Viewlogic Schematic
Symbol" output format option all result in outputs that
include .VHX files.

Also, selecting the "VHDL Instantiation Template", "Verilog
Instantiation Template" or "Viewlogic Schematic Symbol"
setting all result in both a .XNF (v1.4 only) or .EDN (v1.5
only) and a .XSF file being produced, even though these were
not requested by the user.

These files should only be produced when the XNF (v1.4 only) or Edif Implementation Netlist option i s selected.

These files are extraneous and can be ignored.
