Problem Title:
JTAGProgrammer: How to create a log file via the command line?


Problem Description:
Urgency: Standard

General Description: No log file was created when using the command line
version of the Jtag Programmer.


Solution 1:

Unlike the JTAG Programmer Gui program (jtagpgmr.exe), the command line
version (jtagprog.exe) does not create a log file by default. Go to the
directory where the jedec file is located and run the following command.
The command below will generate the log file:

     jtagprog -log logfilename.log

Then you can proceed to select the part:

     part XC9536:filename

There are a number of additional functions you can follow this with:

     erase filename

     program filename

Please keep in mind there are various options you can use and these
are documented in the JTAG Programmer Guide on the Xilinx on-line help.
