Black Blox Creation

I have a doubt about CREATE BLACK BOX:

I have a testbench where I am trying to simulate two separate RTL designs that share some module names within their designs. I have tried compiling and elaborating them separately and then referencing their libraries but I still get error.

On Incisive Enterprise Simulator -> irun -> Elaboration Command Line Options -> Elaboration Command Line Options -> 1.2 ncelab Command options -> 1.2.20 -BBOX_Create directory have a example of how to create a Black Box, however I did all the steps of example 4 and did not work!!!!


print the following error:

irun -primname ip1 -bbox_link ./tmp/box1 -primname ip2 -bbox_link ./tmp/box2 soc.v
irun: 15.10-s002: (c) Copyright 1995-2015 Cadence Design Systems, Inc.
irun: *E,DYNWKP: unable to locate the primary irun invocation from -PRIMNAME ip1.
irun: *E,DYNWKP: unable to locate the primary irun invocation from -PRIMNAME ip2.
irun: *E,DYNMPN: unable to locate primary snapshot from -PRIMNAME ip1.

Can you help me, about this?

    This is the example to run "package"

    ------

    //---FILE 1 PACKAGE

    package P;
    int c = 5;
    endpackage:P

    //---FILE 2 PACKAGE

    package P;
    int c = 10;
    endpackage:P

    //---FILE 3 DUT 1

    import P::*;
    module DUT;
    initial begin

    $display ("%m C =%d",c);

    end
     
    endmodule


    //--- FILE 4 TB

    module tb;

      DUT DUT_1();

      DUT DUT_2();

    endmodule


    //**** OBS: Using MSIE how to make DUT_1 have package of the FILE 1 and DUT_2 have package of the FILE 2?

    ///*********** I would Like to get the following result:    tb.DUT_1 C = 5
    //                                                          tb.DUT_2 C = 10
                                                                
    --------

    I hope somebody know about this.
