Description
Imports timing results in the TWX format timing report files generated by the Xilinx® Timing Reporter And Circuit Evaluator (TRACE) tool. The TWX file can be imported at the top-level, which is the default, or at a specific cell-level or relative to a specific Pblock.
After the TWX files are imported, the timing results display in the Timing Results view in GUI mode.
Arguments
-cell <arg> - (Optional) Specify The name of a hierarchical cell in the current design to import the TWX file into. The timing paths will be applied to the specified cell.
-pblock <arg> - (Optional) The name of a Pblock in the current design. The timing paths will be imported relative to the specified block.
-quiet - (Optional) Execute the command quietly, returning no messages from the command. The command also returns TCL_OK regardless of any errors encountered during execution.
-verbose - (Optional) Temporarily override any message limits and return all messages from this command.
set_msg_config command.
