Record #5073
Problem Title:
FPGA Express produces XNF with lines greater than 2048 characters, ERROR:basxn:53 - Line
number 30788: maximum field length exceeded
Problem Description:
Urgency: Standard
General Description:
With FPGA Express 3.1 and earlier, when one writes out timing constraints, they are placed in
the XNF file. If the timing specification becomes complex enough, these lines become exceedingly
long and may violate the 2048 character limit. The following error will result during implementatio
n:
ERROR:basxn:53 - Line number 30788: maximum field length exceeded
Solution 1:
This issue has been resolved in FPGA Express 3.2 (Foundation 2.1i) and newer, as timing
constraints are no longer written into the XNF. They are now placed in an NCF file.
