7. Component Interface Tcl Reference

Tcl commands allow you to perform a wide range of functions in Platform Designer. Command descriptions contain the Platform Designer phases where you can use the command, for example, main program, elaboration, composition, or fileset callback. This reference denotes optional command arguments in brackets [ ].
Note: Intel® now refers to Qsys as Platform Designer (Standard).

Platform Designer supports Avalon® , AMBA* 3 AXI (version 1.0), AMBA* 4 AXI (version 2.0), AMBA* 4 AXI-Lite (version 2.0), AMBA* 4 AXI-Stream (version 1.0), and AMBA* 3 APB (version 1.0) interface specifications.

If you are developing an IP component to work with the Nios® II processor, refer to Publishing Component Information to Embedded Software in section 3 of the Nios® II Software Developer's Handbook, which describes how to publish hardware IP component information for embedded software tools, such as a C compiler and a Board Support Package (BSP) generator.
