Description

Keywords: strategy, property, options, update, goals

When I attempt to migrate a project from ISE 10 to 11.1, Project Navigator does not consider an applied Design Strategy in the following two cases:

1. You have a Design Strategy applied and that strategy file can no longer be found.
- This can occur if a Xilinx strategy no longer exists (e.g., removed from the Xilinx install), or a user strategy has been moved or deleted.

2. You have a Design Strategy applied and that strategy file still exists, but the contents of it (property values) have been changed.
- Strategy options and settings might be changed from release to release in order to best fit the strategy goal for that release.

Solution

If a Design Strategy is not found during migration, the strategy will not be applied. However, process properties that have been set in the design should be correctly applied.
