MAX+PLUS II Project Directory Structure

In the MAX+PLUS® II software, a project name is the name of a top-level design file, without the filename extension. This design file can be an EDIF, VHDL, or Verilog HDL netlist file; an Altera Hardware Description Language (AHDL) Text Design File (TDF); or any other MAX+PLUS II-supported design file. The EDIF netlist file must be created by ENWrite, Galileo Extreme, or Leonardo software and imported into MAX+PLUS II as an EDIF Input File (.edf). Figure 1 shows an example of a MAX+PLUS II project directory.

MAX+PLUS II Project Directory

The MAX+PLUS II software stores the connectivity data on the links between design files in a hierarchical project in a Hierarchy Interconnect File (.hif), but refers to the entire project only by its project name. The MAX+PLUS II Compiler uses the HIF to build a single, fully flattened project database that integrates all the design files in a project hierarchy.
