I get a message that my SmarDesign cannot be generated due to errors. What do I do and what is the Design Rules Check?

The Design Rules Check is included in your Report View. It lists all the errors and warnings in your design, including unconnected input pins, required pin connections, configuration incompatibilities between cores, etc.

Errors are shown with a small red stop sign and must be corrected before you can generate. Warnings can be ignored.

For details Appendix C - DRC Check.
