Managing Platforms and Repositories
You can manage the platforms that are available for use in Vitis IDE projects, from in the main menu of an open project, or from the Platform dialog box. This lets you add a new platform, or a new platform repository.
From the Platform dialog box, manage the available platforms and platform repositories using one of the following options:
- Add Custom Platform (
)
- Add your own platform to the list of available platforms. To add a new platform, navigate to the top-level directory of the custom platform, select it, and click OK. The custom platform is immediately available for selection from the list of available platforms.
- Manage Platform Repositories (
)
- Add or remove standard and custom platforms. If a custom platform is added, the path to the new platform is automatically added to the repositories. When a platform is removed from the list of repositories, it no longer displays in the list of available platforms.
- Add Devices/Platforms (
)
- Manage the Xilinx devices and platforms installed as part of the standard software installation. If a device or platform was not selected during the installation process, you can add it later using this option. This launches the Vitis Installer so you can select extra content to install. To directly add custom platforms to the tool, select .
