Hi all, I try to convert a file with extension *.vwf (used in Quartus) to btim or tim one. I tried to use exported (Quartus option) to vht (vhd) format files in ModelSim Actel Customer version but with no success. Could you tell me why ModelSim (Libero Design Flow) doesn't see the testbench file created in that way (there is'nt any altera libraries in the code) and propose any solution?
Thanks! Best regards, Karl
A simulation testbench written in vhdl or verilog is portable across vendors. A waveform based simulation is not.

Could you explain the difference between extension vht and vhd? Does It means that I can't use testbench exporetd from waveform to vht in Quartus. ModelSim doesn't see this file. I changed name from tbench.vht to tbench.vhd but it doesn't work. I have few waveform files and I want to try export them to another format. I could do that in Waveformer Pro (Synapticad) but it is only eval version in which I can't even save.
goggle is your friend:
vhd is vhdl code for modelsim or synthesis
Read some docs.
quartus uses vht for it's simulator. Modelsim doesn't.
You have discovered one good reason to learn an HDL.
