2.1i COREGEN: How to install new CORE Generator IP updates / newly installed cores not visible



Problem Description:
Urgency: standard

General Description:
How to install new cores into CORE Generator 2.1i.


Solution 1:


To install any IP update to the 2.1i CORE Generator, you must
follow these steps:

1. Extract the update to your XILINX install directory
2. Start up the CORE Generator to allow it to
rebuild its database of installed modules.
3. Next, if you would like to be able to access the new cores in a pre-existing project, set the current CORE Generator project to the location of this
project, then select Project-> Update Cores-> All to Latest. You can
alternatively update just the cores you are interested in including in the
pre-existing project by doing a Project-> Update Cores-> Custom Update.
