Model Configuration Parameters: EDA Tool Scripts

The EDA Tool Scripts category lets you set options that control generation of script files for third-party HDL simulation and synthesis tools.

These configuration parameters appear in the Configuration Parameters > HDL Code Generation > EDA Tool Scripts category.
