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.

    Note: You can add the static region .qdb file by turning on This project uses a Partition Database (.qdb) file for the root partition, and then specifying the static region .qdb file name.
  5. Similarly, set the Revision type for blinking_led_slow and blinking_led_empty revisions.

  6. Verify that each .qsf file now contains the following assignment: 
    set_global_assignment -name REVISION_TYPE PR_IMPL
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.
