Multiprocess Log

Unlike normal flow executions, implementation runs initiated from the

Multiprocess View

do not have their

log information appended to the ACE Session Log. This is because multiple processes would be appending
info to the log file simultaneously, which would leave log entries interleaved in an unreadable mess. Instead,
each implementation executed in the background will create a new log file named

multiprocess.log

in that implementation’s log directory. (This will overwrite any prior multiprocess log created for that
implementation.) Each implementation executed via the Multiprocess View does still append information
to its lifetime implementation log file.

SnapShot Log

The SnapShot log file is discussed in

Collecting SnapShot Samples

.

ACE GUI Log

On rare occasions, Achronix Tech Support may request the ACE GUI Log. This may be found in the
following manner:
Help About Ace Installation Details Configuration View Error Log
This will open the GUI log in a non-ACE text file editor or HTML browser. The editor/browser will typically
report the full path of the opened file.

Active Project and Implementation

The active project is the project containing the active implementation in the current tool session. The
active implementation is the project implementation on which flow and project management commands are
operating. Only one implementation can be active at one time. The active state applies across all projects
and only in the context of the current tool session. This state does not persist across sessions and is not
saved in a project file.

The active project’s name, active implementation’s name, and target device name are all shown on the ACE
titlebar in the format ”Project → Implementation (Device)”.
