ETS software crash

Hi,

The ETS software closes unexpectedly when I try to load a verilog gate-level netlist generated from RTL Compiler. In the console, I loaded the library file with the read_lib command and it worked ok, but when I use the read_verilog command to read the netlist, the program closes unexpectedly. I tried in a different machine but I got the same problem. The same happened when I tried to load the netlist using the GUI.

This verilog netlist has a file size of 3.7MB and over 77000 lines, I wonder if that could be a problem and if the ETS software has a design size limit requirement. I tried a much smaller design and it worked perfectly.

Thanks,

Marcelo

Well, I fixed this problem by modifying the the verilog RTL to result in a larger slack after synthesis. The old slack was around 70ps.
