XFLOW 2.1i: Command Line tool that allows you to do away with batch files and scripts in order to run the Xilinx tools !



Problem Description:
Urgency: HOT

General Description:

I hear that there's a new command line program that will allow you
to run the full suite of Xilinx implementation tools. What is it and
where can I find it ?


Solution 1:

This new command line tool is called XFLOW.

It allows you to run the full suite of Xilinx implementation,
simulation, and configuration flows. It is device independent
and has an interface to the Xilinx tools that is customizable.

XFLOW accepts design, flow, and option files as input.
XFLOW is making its debut in the 2.1i release. To run,
simply type in "xflow" from the command line.

For further information and examples of how to use XFLOW,
please refer to the "XFLOW" chapter of the Development
System Reference Guide.
