To launch the Vitis
Unified IDE, do the following:
- Use the following command to load the Vitis software platform
environment.
source <Vitis_Installation_Directory>/settings64.sh
- Use the following command to launch the next generation Vitis
IDE.
vitis -new -w <workspace>
where
<workspace>
indicates a folder to hold all of the contents of your design project. The workspace is used to group together the source and data files that make up a design, or multiple designs, and stores the configuration of the tool for that workspace.
Figure 1. Welcome Screen
For other supported launch modes, see Launch Options.
Note: Before launching the Vitis Unified IDE, you can set up other environmental
settings to ensure that the tool can pick up these settings. For example, you can
set up Xilinx Runtime (XRT) for building and running
data center acceleration
applications:
source <XRT_Install_Path>/setup.sh
You
can set up the platform repository path with the following example:
export PLATFORM_REPO_PATHS=<platform_path>
