The simulation library compilation wizard of EDK can't find modelsim

Apr 24, 2007 4 Replies

Hi, All: When I complie the simulation library in EDK 9.1.01i using the library compilation wizard, it told me that "modlesim is not found! please ensure that the simulator is correctly installed and/or the necessary envoroment settings are available". But I do have modelsim se 6.2e and



6.1e intalled on my machine and they work fine. The only system variable I set for modelsim is LM_LICENSE_FILE, should I set any other variables? And EDK says it only support Modelsim SE/PE 6.1e. I am wondering can't it support the later versions? But anyway, I intalled 6.1e and got the same result. By the way, the wizard didn't work when I used EDK 8.2 and I had to do it manually? Am I wrong somewhere?

Thanks a lot, Rebecca

Click up a shell, bash or cmd.exe

mkdir play cd play vcom

If this doesn't give you the vcom usage, type "exit" to close the shell, find vcom, and add it's location to your path and try again.

You are right. I can't find vcom usage. But I do added the location of modelsim and XPS to the PATH. Neither of them work. Probably something wrong with my windows setting. Thanks, Rebecca

Now it is working. I just remove some; and space in the PATH enviroment and then it works. Thank you, Rebecca
