11 years ago --- Quote Start --- I want to be able to create a definition of pin inputs to pin outputs using text file(s). In this way I can write a Windows program to generate the definition of what FPGA input pin connects to what FPGA output pin. This would remove a lot of manual steps involved in keeping various project definitions aligned. --- Quote End --- Ok. --- Quote Start --- I am used to using ISVLever & in that tool you could specify pin assignments using a text constraints file. --- Quote End --- Ok, then the Quartus Tcl scripting should do what you want. Do you have an Altera development kit? I've created Tcl examples for several kits. I can point you to an example, so you can see how the Tcl scripts can automate the design. This makes project maintenance much easier. Cheers, Dave
