does the VIP core need a license to do modelsim's simulation
I set up a project(it's name is test_video) using the VIP core,when I only use the "test pattern generator" IP core (I give it the name test)in my project,after compiling design in quartus,I start the modelsim from the quartus II,and there is a test.vho in my projenct file,I compile the test.vho and test.vhd in modelsim,(and I resolve some problem before compiling,the generated test.vhd can not be compiled in modelsim,because it does'nt including the library IEEE and use IEEE.std_logic_1164.all, and the last ; in the entity must be cut)I use the GUI to add the value to input signal(clock,reset,data_ready),then I start the simulation,I get no data,no start of packet,no end of packet,no data_valid(these are the test pattern generator IP core's output),so I check my design,after I do EDA Netlist Writer in quartus's compile the design,I found there is a new file--test_video.vho in my project file\modelsim\simulation,after I compiling it in modelsim,I found there is structure (it's property is architecture)under modelsim's work library's test_video entity,not just a rtl architecture,now I can simulating the test_video,I can get the right output,althouh if simulating the work library's test entity,I get nothing also.
Then I add a scaler to my design and compile it,but now it can't do EDA Netlist Writer in quartus's compile,because there is open core plus time_limited IP core--the scaler(it need a license,if there is no license,it just generate a timi-limited.sof file),so I can't get the test_video.vho in my project file\modelsim\simulation,I start the simulation in modelsim,compiling the test_video.vhd,test.vho,test.vhd; I get no output again. what I want to ask is dose it need a license to do the simulation,(even the simulation model is generated--the .vho or .vo file),and the other question is even I get the license(so I generate the projectname.vho,such as test_video.vho )I can't simulate the entity included in my project(I can't simulate the test in work library,only simulate the test_video),is it right?
