Tcl Commands for General Usage
R
properties (list available partition properties)
The partition properties command displays a list of the supported properties for all
partitions. You can set the value of any property with the partition set command.
% partition properties
partition is the name of the Xilinx Tcl command.
properties is the name of the partition subcommand.
For a list of partition properties and their return values, see the “set (set partition preserve
property)” command in this chapter.
rerun (force partition synthesis and implementation)
The partition rerun command forces re-synthesis or re-implementation of a specified
partition. If synthesis is specified, synthesis (XST), translation (NGDBuild), packing
(MAP), and placement and routing (PAR) are all performed the next time the process run
command is specified. If implementation is specified, translation, packing, and placement
and routing are performed.
% partition rerun <partition_name> {synthesis|implementation}
partition is the name of the Xilinx Tcl command.
rerun is the name of the partition subcommand.
partition_name specifies the full hierarchical name of the partition or the collection you
wish to force the re-synthesis or re-implementation of. A collection is specified using the
dollar-sign syntax ($) with the name of the collection variable.
synthesis specifies re-synthesis of the partition starting with XST, then NGDBuild, MAP,
and PAR.
implementation specifies re-implementing the partition starting with NGDBuild, then MAP
and PAR.
Note:
This command is used with the process run command, which runs the processes of the
project.
Example: % partition properties
Description: In this example, the partition properties command is used to list the
properties available for all partitions in the current ISE project.
Tcl Return: The available partition properties as a Tcl list.
Example:
% partition rerun implementation /stopwatch/Inst_dcm1
Description: In this example, the partition rerun command forces the re-
implementation of the /stopwatch/Inst_dcm1 partition.
Tcl Return: True if the command was successful; false otherwise.
