modelsim.ini used when running vlog in i++ compilation for cosimulation.

Hi,

I did not get the question, can you briefly explain what that is you are trying to achieve?

Hi,

Actually I think the modelsim.ini file may be tangential to the problem. The issue that I have is that the vlog command used internally by i++ in the testbench creation phase sometimes cannot find included svh files. It seems like if I work in my home directory it can find includes but on the data drive it cannot, and I cannot explain it. Here is a simple example with a verilog file implementing an AND gate and an include file that defines FOO (which is unused). There are only two files in the directory to start, simple.sv and simple.svh.
