Re: gEDA-user: What's your way of syncing CPLD design and gschem symbols???

It might be easier to work backwards, from the schematic, and have it back-annotate into the .ucf (user constraint file), which is the file used by the Xilinx tools for pinouts (and timing specs, etc etc). It gets even more complicated when schematic net names don't match the CPLD design pin names, or when you connect the same schematic net to two FPGA pins (like when doing external clock feedback).


This isn't really a problem for small CPLDs but it's a right royal PITA with large FPGAs.
Fortunately I only use XC9572XL CPLDs for most of
my designs :)

And as you already wrote there's no problem with the
net names, as they map 1:1 between the VHDL source
and the schematic symbol.
