Xilinx WebPack 6 -> Error: 90:Portability <-- anyone can give me a hint?

Klaus, Have you been to the Xilinx website answer search thingy? I put ERROR:Portability:90 into the search and had four answers appear. Somewhere to start. Cheers, Syms.

Yes, I have been there. If I did not overlook something, there are error reports with the same number and keyword, however, from the impact programmer.

I have the error with 'translate' process.

Thanks anyway :-)

Ok Klaus, The first hit was Answer Record # 9936 :-

Problem Description: Keywords: NgdBuild, error, portability, 90, command, line

Urgency: Standard

General Description: When running NGDBuild, the following error occurs:

ERROR:Portability:90 - Command line error: Argument "C:\temp\design.edn" has an invalid extension. The valid extension is ".ngd". If your file name has more than one "." in it you must explicitly enter the full file name with its extension.

Solution 1:

This error is usually the result of having a space in the path leading to the macro search directory. For example, if the macro search path was set to:

C:\Program Files\libraries

NGDBuild would issue the above error.

Xilinx tools do not support any white space in directory or file names. To work around the problem, do not reference any files with spaces in the path.
