Hi,
I'm wondering that is there any way to use configuration clause outside the architecture declarative part as a top-level for synthesize? E.g. as a separate file. I have had no problem doing it this way in Aldec, but it seems XST doesn't bind the correct component if I do it this way. In fact, XST completely overlooks my configuration statement if I declare it as a separate file.
My guess is I need to specify something with XST's settings or give the configuration statement file a special extension name.
I looked through the forum to no avail. If anyone does know how to do this, I'd be appreciate if you can tell me.
Thanks,

ps. I'm using Xilinx XST 9.1 as a synthesis tool, so if newer version fixes this problem (or include this feature) please let me know.
