When I run Verilog/SystemVerilog mixing ncsim, there is Fatal Error.

    Davy,

    I don't think it is a problem to mix Verilog and SystemVerilog --- I'm doing it now with similar problems. My problems have mostly been "internal errors" in the elaboration phase. I've often found that if I muck around with the code I can get it to elaborate.

    I noticed you're running point release 2. Point release 3 is out and does appear to be better.

    Good luck.

    In most of such cases I would send the testcase to the vendor and seek assistance as I don't believe the "users" can resolve stack traces. If you get a clue of what might cause (by narrowing it down to say few combinations), then maybe we can help.

    I would recommend you contact CDN support. Also try using latest patch/release - SV is new and hence the later the version you use, the better it is (in general)

    Hi,

    I have tried the IUS-583-S003, the old problem pass. Thanks!

    Best regards,
    Davy
