Running Xilinx WebPack under Wine on FreeBSD
Well, I got this working last weekend. It's such a relief not having to worry about Samba mounts any more, and emulation under Wine is, err, as good as you'd expect. While Xilinx now supports WebPack under Wine, they don't seem to give you any help as far as running the tools. For that, I had to run the ISE tools under Windows and look in the command logs that it leaves around to determine what to run! Here's the script I ended up with:

#!/usr/local/bin/bash export XILINX=c:/Xilinx export DISPLAY=192.168.0.111:1 function rw() { EXE=$1; shift; wine -- ~/c/Xilinx/bin/nt/$EXE -intstyle ise $* 2>&1 | grep -v ^fixme | tee log } ENTITY=c2a echo "vhdl work $ENTITY.vhd" > xc2s200.prj sed "s/ENTITY/$ENTITY/" < proto.xst > xc2s200.xst rw xst -ifn xc2s200.xst -ofn xc2s200.syr grep -i ^error log && exit 1 rw ngdbuild -dd _ngo -uc $ENTITY.ucf -p xc2s200-pq208-5 xc2s200.ngc xc2s200.ngd grep -i '^error' log && exit 1 rw map -p xc2s200-pq208-5 -cm area -pr b -k 4 -c 100 -tx off -o xc2s200_map.ncd xc2s200.ngd xc2s200.pcf rw par -w -ol std -t 1 xc2s200_map.ncd xc2s200.ncd xc2s200.pcf rw trce -e 3 -l 3 -xml xc2s200 xc2s200.ncd -o xc2s200.twr xc2s200.pcf rw bitgen -f xc2s200.ut xc2s200.ncd cp xc2s200.rbt $ENTITY.rbt

Setting up a build directory for a particular chip was similarly painful. Here's what I ended up with for the xc2s200: /files/camera/xc2s200/.
