Usage
import_design_file [-h] [-help] [-long_help] [-parent <Destination instance path>] [-target <Instance path>] <filename>
- Arguments
- -h: Quick usage.
- -help: Short help.
- -long_help: Long help with examples and possible return values.
- parent <destination instance path>: Instance path under which to import the design file.
- -target <Instance path>: Instance path to import the design file as.
- -<filename>: The filename to read.
Tcl Package and Version
Belongs to ::quartus::pta 1.0 .
Description
This command imports a design file into the target path of the current design. It returns the imported object's instance path.
Example Usage
import_design_file -target {|parent_target|child_instance} my_file.pta
# returns: {|parent_target[0]|child_instance[0]}
import_design_file -parent {|parent_target} my_file.pta
Return Value
| Code Name | Code | String Return |
|---|---|---|
| TCL_OK | 0 | INFO: Operation successful. |
| TCL_OK | 0 | WARNING: File '<string>' generated warnings on import. Please review '<string>' for details. |
