Description

Refresh the block design cell or cells that reference module definitions from RTL source files by rereading the module definition from the source file.
Note: This command does not cause the Vivado tool to reread the source file. If changes have been made to the source file it must be separately updated.

This command returns a transcript of the update process as well as any warnings related to design changes, or returns nothing if the command fails.

Arguments

-quiet - (Optional) Execute the command quietly, returning no messages from the command. The command also returns TCL_OK regardless of any errors encountered during execution.
Note: Any errors encountered on the command-line, while launching the command, will be returned. Only errors occurring inside the command will be trapped.
-verbose - (Optional) Temporarily override any message limits and return all messages from this command.
Note: Message limits can be defined with the set_msg_config command.

<ips> - (Optional) Specifies the module references in the current design to upgrade. Modules can be specified by name, or returned by the get_ips command.

Examples

The following example updates the specified module references in the current design:
update_module_reference {rtlRam_0 uart_0}
