10.1 ISE - String type Generic passed into HDL top level is ignored - WARNING:Xst:2311 - Ignoring definition of generics because of bad string value provided
Description
I am trying to pass a Generic from the XST option "Generic, Parameter" and I receive the following warning from XST:
"WARNING:Xst:2311 - Ignoring definition of generics because of bad string value provided"
I am following the XST guide syntax:
company="xilinx"
Why does XST ignore my Generic?
解决方案
Project Navigator is not passing the string correctly.
1. Select Synthesis-XST and then Process -> Properties
2. Under Synthesis options, find the "Generics, Parameters" option.
3. Change:
company="xilinx"
to:
company=""xilinx_
(notice that there are two double-quotation marks in a row)
