EDIF_EXTRA_SEARCH_PATHS

This property defines a search path on the current fileset for the Vivado Design Suite to look for EDIF files referenced by the design.

 

TIP:   The following error occurs during implementation when the Vivado Design Suite is unable to locate the EDIF netlist associated with the blackbox. This can be fixed by defining the EDIF_EXTRA_SEARCH_PATHS:
“ERROR: [Opt 31-30] Blackbox module11 is driving pin I of primitive cell OBUF_inst. The blackbox cannot be found in the existing library.”
