Updating a XILINX Project

May 13, 2004 1 Replies

Hi,



I am trying to update a XILINX EDK 3.2 project file to a EDK 6.1 project file. I tried using the revup32to61 utility that is included; however, I receive the error message posted below. The PERL file that this utility is looking for is no where to be found. I have tried searching both EDK installation disk and the entire hard-disk; howver, the file is not on either. Thanks in advance.



Error Message:



-------------- Can't open perl script "C:\EDK\\bin\nt\edk_instname_revup.pl": No such file or directory WARNING:MDT - Some of the instance names in your design had same name as the IP.



Revup changed those instance names in MHS and MSS files. Revup also changed your c source files where any macros and variables defined



in xparameters.h were referred to. If your are referring to these instance names in UCF or BMM file, please change those references yourself. ERROR:MDT - Error while reving up instance names


I get the same error, the mentioned script is simply not there.

But to avoid that, all you have to do is change the instance names of your components: the instance name and the name of the corresponding core must not be identical. That's what the perl-script would do for you automatically, if it was there..

cu, Sean
