To convert a PlanAhead™ tool project to a Vivado IDE project, open the PlanAhead project file (PPR extension) in the Vivado IDE. When prompted, type in a new project name and location for the converted project.
The project conversion effects the following changes:
- Targets the Vivado Design Suite default 7 series device on projects with pre-7 series devices.
- Resets all runs. They are generated after implementing the design in the tool.
- Replaces run strategies with Vivado Design Suite default strategies.
- Moves UCF files to an Unsupported Constraints Folder because UCF constraints are not supported.
Note:
- Conversion of designs with Partitions is not supported.
- AMD Zynq™ 7000 SoC processor designs using XPS are not supported.
Important: The Vivado IP integrator is the replacement for Xilinx Platform Studio
(XPS) for new embedded processor designs, including designs targeting Zynq devices and
MicroBlaze™
processors. XPS is
no longer integrated with the Vivado Design Suite.
However, DCP and NGC files created without constraints in XPS are supported as
source files in the Vivado Design Suite.
