Is synthesis with Synplify supported?
Synthesis with Synplify is not officially supported as of the v1.3 release in ISE Design Suite 13.4. This is because no testing has been done to verify that the core functions properly when the wrapper is synthesized with Synplify. Support for Synplify is planned for a future release.
If Synplify is selected as the flow in the CORE Generator tool, scripts are generated for Synplify. These are provided as reference for users who want to use Synplify even though it is not an officially supported flow.
One of these scripts, the implement.bat[sh] file, calls Synplify twice. Although it causes no functional problem, the only part needed is:
#Synthesize the Example Design Files
echo 'Synthesizing example design with Synplify';
Synplify_pro -batch synplify.prj
cp Synplify/xilinx_pci_exp_ep.edf ./results/xilinx_pcie_2_1_ep_7x.edf
cd results
echo 'Running ngdbuild'
etc....
