2.5.5.3. Specifying Rule Parameters for a Specific Compiler Stage
You can specify different parameters for Design Assistant rules for each Compiler stages. This feature allows you apply a set of rule parameters to a specific stage of compilation, and have a different set of rule parameters for another stage.
To enable or disable parameters for specific Compiler stages, follow these steps:
- Specify initial Design Assistant Settings, as Setting Up Design Assistant describes.
- In the Design Assistant Rule Settings page, click the arrow next to a rule that supports multiple Compiler stages to expand the subrules for each stage.
- Select the subrule and then specify the parameters in Parameters for rule.
