EDA_FV_HIERARCHY
EDA_FV_HIERARCHY
Type
Determines how the hierarchy of design entities is to be processed during
compilation. The BLACKBOX setting causes the entity to be handled as a black-box in
the EDA flow. The NONE setting is the default and means that no special handling
needs to be done. This option applies only to the design entity to which it is assigned;
lower-level entities do not inherit the setting of their parent entity for this option.
Enumeration
■ BLACKBOX
■ Off
Device Support
This setting can be used in projects targeting any Altera device family.
Syntax
set_global_assignment -name EDA_FV_HIERARCHY -entity
