Programming XILINX CPLD with JAM byte code player

Hello everyone, 

I'm trying to implement field-update for a XILINX CPLD using the JAM byte code player. 

I know X is using SVF/XSVF, but I want a solution that works throughout all kinds of PLDs. 

 

I've ported the JBC to my ARM, and tested successfully with MAX10 so it should also work with the XILINX device. 

But I'm struggling to generate a .jbc file for it that works. 

 

1) had an .svf file which i wanted to convert to JAM/STAPL using SVF2Jam Conversion Utility, but gives me a 

"SVF improper "STATE" syntax" error. SVF was generated with Impact of ISE 14.7. I checked the line it complained about, but looked ok. 

 

2) generated STAPL file with Impact, and converted to JBC using "Jam STAPL Byte-Code Compiler". That worked, but when playing the file on my ARM 

it throws an "JBIC_BOUNDS_ERROR" error. 

 

has anybody successfully generated a JBC (can't use text based JAM due to RAM requirements) for a XILINX CPLD?
