Problem Title:

2.1i COREGEN: COREGEN may lose all entries in listing of known projects except for the last project created in mult-user environment



Problem Description:
Urgency: standard

General Description:
COREGEN may lose the listing of projects in the known projects list,
known.prj, except for the last project created,when two users using the same copy of COREGEN create a new project at the same time.

If the same copy of the CORE Generator application is being
run by more than one user at the same time, and each user creates a new
project, only the last project that was set up will be recorded in the listing of known projects in $XILINX/coregen/preferences/known.prj--all other
project entries are lost.





Solution 1:

If this scenario of more than one user creating a project at the same time is
likely to be frequent, it is recommended that each user install and use their
own local copy of the CORE Generator software.
