Need help with VHDL libraries in RTL Compiler

yqzhang
yqzhang over 15 years ago

I have an VHDL file that I want to synthesize that starts like this:

library ieee;

use ieee.std_logic_1164.all;

library grlib;(this is a library I define)

use.grlib.amba.all;

...

when I synthesize with RTL Compiler, it will give me an error like this:

"use.grlib.amba.all", no such primary unit in library"

how can I change the path where RTLC looks for my defined libraries?

    Hello,

    There shouldn't be a '.' between use and the library name...

    incorrect -> use.grlib.amba.all;

    correct    -> use grlib.amba.all;

     Hope that helps.
