1.10.2.4. Generating a Merged .pmsf File from Multiple .pmsf Files
You can merge two or more .pmsf files in the Convert Programming Files window.
- Open the Convert Programming Files window.
- Specify the programming file type as Merged Partial-Mask SRAM Object File (.pmsf).
- Specify the output file name.
- Select PMSF Data in the Input files to convert window.
- Click Add File to add input files. You must specify two or more files for merging.
- Click Generate to generate the merged file.
To merge two or more .pmsf files from the command line, type:
quartus_cpf --merge_pmsf=<number of merged files> <pmsf_input_file_1> <pmsf_input_file_2> <pmsf_input_file_etc> <pmsf_output_file>
For example, to merge two .pmsf files, type:
quartus_cpf --merge_pmsf=<2> <pmsf_input_file_1> <pmsf_input_file_2> <pmsf_output_file>
The merge operation checks for any bit conflict on the input files, and the operation fails with error message if a bit conflict is detected. In most cases, a successful file merge operation indicates input files do not have any bit conflict.
