xsa files #5

Open TripRichert opened 2 years ago

TripRichert commented 2 years ago

Xilinx transitioned from xilinx SDK to vitis in vivado 2019.2.

In this transition, they obsoleted their "hardware description file" (.hdf) format and replaced it with a new file format (.xsa).

Unfortunately, the commands for generating this new format are different.

Either a function needs to be added to support generation of (.xsa) files, or the previous function needs to be modified to detect the version of vivado (or add an option to the function for the caller to choose) and generate the appropriate output accordingly

I don't want to download a newer version of vivado to deal with this.

I've abandoned development of this project, and don't think I have many users (or know of any that require this feature).

I just wanted to document this as a known issue.

if someone uses this project, and needs to generate the xsa file, comment on here to let me know, and I'll try to work with you on it. This update isn't difficult. I just don't want to download 80 more gigs of xilinx software.
