Output Directories of the v++ Command
The directory structure generated by the command-line flow has been organized to let you easily find and access files from the project. By navigating the various compile, link, logs, and reports directories, you can easily find generated files. Similarly, each kernel also has a directory structure created.
When using v++ on the command line, by
default it creates a directory structure during compile and link. The XO and
xclbin files are always generated in the current working
directory. All the intermediate files are created under the directory specified by the
--temp_dir option, which defaults to _x when --temp_dir is
not specified. The link, logs, and reports
directories default to inside of the temp_dir, and
contain the respective information on the builds.
You can optionally change the directory structure using the following
v++ options:
-–temp_dir <dir_name>
--log_dir <dir_name>
-–report_dir <dir_name>
The example application uses the following command
lines:
## Kernel Compilation command:
v++ -t hw_emu --config design.cfg -c -k mmult -I'../src' \
-o'mmult.hw_emu.xilinx_u200_xdma_201830_3.xo' '../src/mmult.cpp'
## Device Binary Linking Command:
v++ -t hw_emu --config design.cfg -l \
-o'mmult.hw_emu.xilinx_u200_xdma_201830_3.xclbin' mmult.hw_emu.xilinx_u200_xdma_201830_3.xo
The design.cfg file includes the following:
platform=xilinx_u200_xdma_201830_3
debug=1
save-temps=1
temp_dir=temp_dir
[connectivity]
nk=mmult:1:mmult_1
The output directory structure follows, where $cwd is the current working directory from which the commands are
launched:
