problems about hdl parser |
|
|
hi,
when i do mixed signal simulation in cadence, some problems occured.
i have compiled some digital .v files using verilog-xl 05.40.003-s, and it finished without errors.
and when i build a block in config and with the same code, the HDL parser give some errors at such codes as "wire signed", "20'sh00004" and "always @(*)",
so can anyone tell me what to do ?
thanks

You've not provided enough information for anyone to realistically be able to
help.

thanks andrew,
i have written some codes in verilog and it passed compilation and can be synthesized, and the following statements are included,
wire signed [33:0] mydata;
assign mydata=34'h3f0000000;
assign mytest=(mydata == -34'sh010000000);
...
however,when i use the same codes in the behavioral view of a cell, which will be recompiled by HDL parser, errors were given in the above statements and marked as "syntax error", it seems HDL parser uses another version of verilog-xl and doesnt accept the syntax as "signed","sh"...
thanks a lot and urgent for your help.

Ah, that's due to "van" being used to analyse the code. This is an old tool
which doesn't understand Verilog 2001 stuff.
If you set the following variable in your .cdsinit or in the CIW:
schHdlUseNcvlogForVerilog = t
Then it will use ncvlog instead (of course, you need to have ncvlog in the
path).
This is described in solution 11192234 on Sourcelink.
Regards,
Andrew. |

thank you very much Andrew,
i have done as you told me and now there is such a warning as:
ncvlog: *W,DLNOHV: Unable to find an 'hdl.var' file to load in.
will this warning matter?
and in my code, i includes more modules in one file, like following:
module a;
b #(3) b0(..);
b #(4) b1(..);
....
endmodule
module b;
parameter PB=1;
...
endmodule
and HDL parser just creates only one cell of b, and can it distinguish the different parameters?
thanks

and when i exit the hdl parser, it doesn't prompt me to create a
symbol for the cell.

Haven't got time to check this now, but try creating an hdl.var file in the
working directory with the following contents:
SOFTINCLUDE $IUSHOME/tools/inca/files/hdl.var
where $IUSHOME is set to wherever your IUS installation is (can be whatever
env var you like, of course).
