Creating Implementation Revisions

  1. To open the Revisions dialog box, click Project > Revisions.
  2. To create a new revision, double-click <<new revision>>.
  3. In Revision name, specify blinking_led_default and select blinking_led for Based on revision.
  4. For the Revision type, select Partial Reconfiguration - Persona Implementation.
  5. Enable This project uses a Partition Database (.qdb) file for the root partition. You do not need to specify the Root Partition Database file at this point. You can input this name at a later stage from the Design Partitions Window.
    Figure 9. Creating Revisions
  6. Similarly, set the Revision type for the other revisions:
    • blinking_led_slow—select Partial Reconfiguration - Persona Implementation.
    • blinking_led_empty—select Partial Reconfiguration - Persona Implementation.
  7. Verify that each .qsf file now contains the following assignments: 
    set_global_assignment -name REVISION_TYPE PR_IMPL
set_instance_assignment -name QDB_FILE_PARTITION place_holder -to |
set_instance_assignment -name ENTITY_REBINDING place_holder -to u_blinking_led
    where, place_holder is the default entity name for the newly created PR implementation revision.
