Problem Title:
Examplar: How to get a listing of the components and port for a given technology.


Problem Description:
Urgency: Standard

General Description:

Using Exemplar Leonardo Spectrum, Leonardo 4.2.2 or Galileo Extreme
4.2.2 I want to instantiate some components. How can I find out what
components are available for me to instantiate, and what the port names
are, for a given technology?


Solution 1:

Note: Do NOT connect any user signals to GTS or GSR of components other than
the STARTUP Block. There is dedicated routing on the chip that will connect
to components GSR and GTS from the STARTUP Block.

Using Leonardo:
---------------
Startup Leonardo

   In the Leoanardo Main window type the follwing to get a listing for
   Xilinx 4000E components and output the list to a file comps.txt:

1) source $EXEMPLAR/data/getlist.tcl <enter>

2) getlist xi4e -format vhdl -outfile comps.txt


3) getlist -help <enter> will give getlist usage.

OR from the Unix or Dos prompt do the following:

1) elsyn <enter>, and the Leonardo{} prompt will come up.

2) source $EXEMPLAR/data/getlist.tcl <enter>

3) getlist xi4e -format vhdl -outfile comps.txt

Using Galileo:
--------------

1) elsyn <enter>, and the Leonardo{} prompt will come up.

2) source $EXEMPLAR/data/getlist.tcl <enter>

3) getlist xi4e -format vhdl -outfile comps.txt
