Product Line: M1 Implementation

Product Part: Constraints Editor

Problem Title:
m1.5: Constraints Editor: TIMESPECs which reference other TIMESPECs are displayed incorrectly



Problem Description:
Urgency: Standard

General Description: If the following constraints are read into Constraints Editor:

TIMESPEC TSMASTER=FROM:TG_MASTERCLK:TO:FFS:12.3ns
TIMESPEC TSFASTEXCEPT=FROM:FFS:THRU:FASTSIG:TOFFS:TSMASTER;

CE is displays the constraint as:

TIMESPEC TSMASTER=FROM:TG_MASTERCLK:TO:FFS:12.3ns
TIMESPEC TSFASTEXCEPT=FROM:FFS:THRU:FASTSIG:TOFFS:0.0;

This is incorrect.


Solution 1:

The solution is to modify the constraint using the Constraints Editor or hand edit the ucf file. This issue will be addressed in the next software release.
