Continuing....

Just tested it. I had to make a copy of [EDK]\bin\nt\xps.exe to [EDK]\bin\nt\_xps.exe so that ISE found it.

Launched synthesis, and not to my surprise, the _xps process hanged, with 98% CPU usage. I say not to my surprise, because the same happened when changing form 6.2 to 6.3, and form 6.3 to 7.1. It would be nicer from Xilinx, if there appeared apopup window, or a console line, telling us the versions don´t match.

Welle, let´s wait fro the new EDK 8.1 release, whenever it comes.

BTW, someone from Xilinx told me some time ago that EDK 8.1 will, at last!, support C++. I hope it will.

Best regards,

Zara

thanks for the info.

C++ would be good to see.

C++ works for me in 6.3 and 7.1 What doesn't work? I had to add extern "C" to a few header files. I don't use many C++ features, however.

I see. Not something I use. I assumed that it would work since it is gcc, but I guess more stuff needs to be ported.
