3.4.3. The --flow list Flow

Use --flow list flow to list all available architecture in an IP library folder. An architecture description file (.arch) specifies the target FPGA family device.

If an architecture has been added to the IP library with different FPGA families, those architecture–FPGA family combinations are displayed as different architectures in the IP folder.

Usage Synopsis

dla_create_ip --flow list [--ip_dir <ip_directory>]

Sample Call

dla_create_ip --flow list --ip_dir $COREDLA_ROOT/example_ip_cores

Sample Output
