sopc component editor and tcl files

Tcl is what the component generator writes, its the end-product, having Tcl refresh the GUI makes no sense, since Tcl is not controlling the GUI.

well will be great to change the component from a tcl file , but it is not the case ,the aim is to check input output of component when tcl files ares modified manually , it can be a great feature .

actually when I edit my component in sopc builder the tcl file change and all the vhdl files are removed by this editor in parallel it saves as tcl~ file the previous version but never show included files for synthetize on the componet editor

for example : in my tcl file i added , file1.vhd , file 1.vhd file 2.vhd , when edit whith the component editor ( sopc) ,i dont have any of these files and as result it saves my "manually added files" on the tcl file to a tcl~ file and continue working without my used vhdl files

In my experience, the component generator is not very smart. Use it only to generate the first-version of the Tcl file needed to have SOPC/Qsys recognize your component. After that, just use a text editor to edit the file. The _hw.tcl file can be written to have call-backs that check the parameters entered via the SOPC/Qsys GUI, etc. The _hw.tcl files are much easier to manipulate directly than by using the component editor GUI.

of course ,I agree , thank you so much to clarify things!!

actually you can read this: http://www.alteraforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=29536&page=3 , it is considered as a bug !!!

Like I said, the component generator is not very smart ... :)
