The open_run command opens a previously completed synthesis or implementation run, then loads the in-memory design of the Vivado tools.
Important: The
open_run
command works in Project Mode only.
Design runs are not supported in Non-Project Mode.Use open_run
before implementation on an RTL design to open a
previously completed Vivado synthesis run then load the
synthesized netlist into memory.
Note: Because the in-memory design is updated automatically, you do not need to use
open_run
after synth_design
. You need to use
open_run
only to open a previously completed synthesis run from
an earlier design session.The open_run
command is for use with RTL designs only. To open a
netlist-based design, use link_design
.
open_run Syntax
open_run [-name <arg>] [-quiet] [-verbose] <run>
open_run Example Script
# Open named design from completed synthesis run
open_run -name synth_1 synth_1
The open_run
example script opens a design
(synth_1
) into the Vivado tools memory from the
completed synthesis run (also named synth_1
).
If you use open_run
while a design is already in memory, the
Vivado tools prompt you to save any changes to the current
design before opening the new design.
