Re: [partial-reconfig] Missing AREA_GROUP property for macro
Hi Lu Yi,
I did all the steps again till the ngdbuild command after copying .ngc file from top_level_initial to incrementer and incrementer.ngc from synthesis/incrementer to implementation/incrementer. This time again it gave the same error about the macro but this time the ucf file is different, here is the new .ucf file :

@ Lu Yi,
In ISE 9.1i we dont need to add any bus macros, they are automatically attached while compling. Got to know this after I got some errors for bus macro. Also in the .ucf file only "INST " constraint is there and the corresponding TBUF is also set. Following is the .ucf file :

@Joe
There are no spaces also in the names of the directories.
Thanks a lot guys for your help.

Normally, before running your active phase ngdbuild, you should check your
design files to meet following requirements:
1). make sure the RIGHT busmacro file is in your working folder, you can just
copy that file in your module folder
2). make sure the name of your busmacro file(.nmc) is SAME as the component
name in your top-level design.
3). check your .ucf file, if you use floorplanner to constrain the area and
assign your busmacro, you will find "area" constraints for your busmacro, for
the partial design, you should delete it,
check xapp290 for details. The only
constraints for busmacro is "INST", you just need to constrain the reference
component of your busmacro, for TBUF-based busmacro, set the reference TBUF
to your required TBUF, for slice-based busmacro, set the reference slice to
your required slice.
Hope that helps.
And if problems are still there, please attach your ucf file.
Regards,
lu, yi
