아래의 도표는 왼편에 나열된 Software가 설치된 환경에서 상단의 Software를 설치할 경우 우리가 주의해야하거나, 신경써야 할 부분등을 정리한 상관관계표입니다...  사용자분들은 아래의 표를 숙지하셔야지만이 Xilinx Software간의 충돌없이 원할한 개발환경을 유지하실수 있습니다...  참고로 여러 EDA Tool들에 관심을 가지고 계신분들이라면, 아래의 설명들이 무엇을 의미하는지를 금방 파악하실수 있으리라 생각됩니다...

Note 1: User must consider the following:

1. Both software applications must be installed in separate directories.
2. Only one application can be running at a time.
3. User must set XILINX variable to point to the current application.

Note 2: Foundation ISE 3.1i installer will only install the design entry tools and will use the currently installed Foundation 3.1i (ALDEC) software for Implementation.  Things to note:

1. To minimize drive space, both software applications can be installed in the same directory.
2. If installed in the same directory, the user is not required to modify the XILINX variable to point to the current application.
3. There are two separate copies of FPGA Express installed.
   - Foundation ISE 3.1i: $XILINX\express
   - Foundation 3.1i (ALDEC): $XILINX\synth

Note 3: Foundation ISE 3.1i can not open an Alliance 3.1i Project and Design Manager can not open a Foundation ISE 3.1i Project.

Note 4: Foundation (ALDEC) and Alliance can access a project created by either tool.
