SOPC export VHDL generic to top

Hi, is it possible to export a VHDL-generic of a custom SOPC Component to the Top-Level of the SOPC-System (As i do with the conduit signals)? Is there a TCL-command for the coponent to do this...

Hi Cris72,

thats what is in my tcl-file:

add_parameter my_nbr INTEGER 0

set_parameter_property my_nbr DEFAULT_VALUE 0

set_parameter_property my_nbr DISPLAY_NAME my_nbr

set_parameter_property my_nbr TYPE INTEGER

set_parameter_property my_nbr UNITS None

set_parameter_property my_nbr ALLOWED_RANGES -2147483648:2147483647

set_parameter_property my_nbr AFFECTS_GENERATION false

set_parameter_property my_nbr HDL_PARAMETER true

the Parameter my_nbr always appears in the component GUI and the SOPC-Builder geneates a file which wraps the VHDL-File of my component and sets the generic to the value i entered in the GUI. But i want the generic to appear at the top-level of my SOPC-System, so that my other VHDL-Code can set the parameters when i instatiate the SOPC-system.
