XAPP290 says references to Vitex also apply to Spartan 2 devices, therefore partial reconfig should be possible, right? er yeah.
So, I assume one should use bm_4b.mnc (bus macro for Virtex) for cross module communication as in a Virtex design. However, when running initial budgeting (ngdbuild -modular initial ) I get the following error:
ERROR:PhysSimExpander:68 - Macro "D:\Work\partialbuild/bm_4b.nmc" is not compatible with the target architecture. This macro cannot be automatically retargeted because it was created with part v50bg256-4, which is no longer valid.
So, am I using the wrong bus macro, do I have to generate my own one? (I have never used/built a macro before!!)
I would be most gratefull for any help. Thanks in advance :)
Ian.
