Problem Title:
ngdbuild: ERROR:bascp:94 - Invalid UCF/NCF file entry value "" detected on line 4, offset
64,
Problem Description:
Keyword: bascp, Invalid, UCF, NCF, ngdbuild, entry
Urgency: Standard
When Constraints Editor writes out a ucf file based on the edif file with parenthesis as
bus notation, the following error may show up in ngdbuild:
bascp:94 - Invalid UCF/NCF file entry value "" detected on line 4
( which is the line that this TIMEGRP appears).
The following is an example of the constraint from the constraint editor.
TIMEGRP "test" = FFS( "rac_num(0)" "rac_num(1)" "rac_num(2)" );
Solution 1:
If the bus notation is angle bracket(<>), there is no problem in ngdbuild
with or without the double quote. The contraint from the constraint editor
will work fine.
Solution 2:
This is a ngdbuild problem. There are two workarounds.
1. Use wildcard character (*)
TIMEGRP "test" = FFS( "rac_num*" );
2. Use the following syntax, replacing the close parenthesis with ?
TIMEGRP "test" = FFS("rac_num(0?" "rac_num(1?" "rac_num(2?" );
This problem will be fixed in the future release.
