Conflicting Harness Definition

Parent category: Violations Associated with Harnesses

Default report mode: 

Summary

This violation occurs when there are conflicting Harness Entries for the same Harness Type, either at a graphical or textual level (in the Harness Definition File).

Notification

If compiler errors and warnings are enabled for display on the schematic (enabled on the Schematic - Compiler page of the Preferences dialog), an offending object will display a colored squiggle beneath it. Hovering over the object will display a pop-up hint that summarizes the violation. A notification is also displayed in the Messages panel in the following format:

Conflicting Harness Definition for <HarnessType>

where:

• HarnessType is the current conflicting Harness Type.

Recommendation for Resolution

Use the Details region of the Messages panel to quickly cross probe to the offending objects (Harness Definition Files and Harness Connectors) within the Signal Harness. Update the Harness Definition File to reflect the changes, or remove the offending Harness Entry.

Tip

• Object hints will only appear provided the Enable Connectivity Insight option is enabled on the System - Design Insight page of the Preferences dialog. Use the controls associated with the Object Hints entry in the Connectivity Insight Options region of the page to determine the launch style for such hints (Mouse Hover and/or Alt+Double Click).
