Search Path and Packages, Interface, etc.

archive

For this discussion assume a design team is used to using a search path approach to finding verilog modules and this forms the basis for the desires to follow. When an module imports a package or instances an interface, is there a similar search path convention/feature in tools like NCSIM, RC, etc?

  • Not what I was asking. I have since deteremined that packages are NOT searched for and interfaces are. An enhancement request was filed a while back. I am talking about the search path (-y) and not the import statement.

    In your example if you all those files in three different directories and listed each directory using -y. I was hoping to only have to specify the top-level module (test) and the two packages would be searched for using the -y. This was assuming that the file names for the packages were test1_pkg.v and test2_pkg.v.
