vcom in modelsim

Hi,

is it possible to compile only the files that needs to be compiled. I have a script which compiles a set of vhdl files, but if I do a change in the last vhdl file in the list, only this file needs to be recompiled. Is there an option for vcom that gives this desired behaviour?

TIA, Frank

Emacs vhdl-mode commands vhdl-generate-make-file and vhdl-make will do the job. Or the modelsim program vmake along with the OS program make will do what you want.

Try Googling for "modelsim vmake". vmake is a Modelsim command that generates a makefile. Haven't used it myself, but I know such feature exists.

See for example

That's true.

1) remove your old library

2) compile sources with your script (compile not simulate)

3) vmake > Makefile ( ===> create a Makefile from Library)

4) every new compilation can be started with "make" (only changed files will be compiled)
