## MAX+PLUS II/Viewlogic Powerview Interface File Organization

Table 1 shows the MAX+PLUS® II/Viewlogic Powerview interface subdirectories that are created in the MAX+PLUS II system directory (by default, the /usr/maxplus2 directory) during MAX+PLUS II installation.

| For information on the other directories that are created during MAX+PLUS II installation, see "MAX+PLUS II File Organization" in MAX+PLUS II Installation in the MAX+PLUS II Getting Started manual.

#### Table 1. MAX+PLUS II Directory Organization

Directory | Description
--- | ---
./lmf | Contains the Altera-provided Library Mapping File, vwlogic.lmf, that maps Viewlogic logic functions to equivalent MAX+PLUS II logic functions.
./Viewlogic | Contains the alt_edif.cfg EDIF configuration file that is used with the edifneti utility. Also contains the library and sample subdirectories.
./Viewlogic/examples | Contains the sample Viewlogic designs.
./Viewlogic/library/max2sim | Contains the MAX+PLUS II simulation model library (max2_sim) for use in ViewSim software.
./Viewlogic/library/alt_max2 | Contains MAX+PLUS II primitives (`EXP`, `GLOBAL`, `LCELL`, `SOFT`, `CARRY`, `CASCADE`, `DFFE`, `DFFE6K`, and `OPNDRN`), macrofunctions (`a_8fadd`, `a_8mcomp`, `a_8count`, `a_81mux`), and megafunctions (`clklock`) for use in ViewDraw schematics. These logic functions support specific architectural features of Altera® devices. The alt_max2 library also contains modified versions of the ViewDraw primitives that use tri-state buffers, because these primitives require special handling in the MAX+PLUS II/Viewlogic Powerview interface.
./Viewlogic/library/synlib | Contains the Altera-provided synthesis library altera, which includes MAX+PLUS II primitives, the altera.sml file, a sym directory, and a wir directory for use with ViewSynthesis software.
./Viewlogic/library/alt_mf | Contains the VHDL models for the MAX+PLUS II primitives (`EXP`, `GLOBAL`, `LCELL`, `SOFT`, `CARRY`, `CASCADE`, `DFFE`, and `OPNDRN`), macrofunctions (`clklock`) for use with ViewSynthesis software, the Vantage VHDL Analyzer software, and the VHDL source files. These logic functions are used to maintain portability to other architectures.
./Viewlogic/library/alt_time | Contains MOTIVE timing models for MAX+PLUS II logic functions (motive.lib), including the `clklock` megafunction, and MAX+PLUS II driver models (motive.drv).
./Viewlogic/library/alt_vtl | Contains the VHDL source files for the VITAL 3.0-compliant library. This library is available for ViewSim software.
./Viewlogic/bin | Contains all MAX+PLUS II, Viewlogic, and interface-related scripts.
./Viewlogic/standard | Contains all standard .ini files and standard tools.
