ncelab SDF warning

Hi, 

What are the implications of the following message:

Ncverilog.log

ncelab: *W,SDFRDE: Read error for default code, skipping annotation of wst.sdf.X.

 

Thanks,

JPV

    The times I've seen this error in the past have all been due to a corrupted SDF file. The solution has been to delete the .X file and get the process to start from the original text .sdf file again.

    Can you show us some of your log file?

    If that doesn't help, I think we'll have to refer you to Cadence customer support. :-(
