17 years agoHi, thanks Pletz for helping me. I had tried to generate to fft block again but still the same result. Somehow I just can't seem to be able to use the block. Maybe the way I generate it is wrong, cause when I tried it in another computer the same error message appear. Let me explain my steps again, see if I missed anything that could lead me to the error.
1. First, I create a new project directory at c:\altera\projects\fft_project 2. Then, I generate fft megafunction under a project with the name fft.qpf, so the vhd code generated is located at c:\altera\projects\fft_project\fft.vhd along with other files such as fft.bsf, fft.qip, fft_tb.v, fft_tb.vhd and many others. 3. After that, I create another project with the name fftwork.qpf. The location of the project is c:\altera\projects\fft_project\fftwork.qpf Under that project, I create a block diagram file (bdf) named fftwork.bdf. Inside that bdf file, there is the fft block. fft.qip is added to the project using settings (assignments). I get the same error message result regardless if I connect the fft block pins or not. The compilation stops at 23% everytime. Is this a wrong way to use IP megafunction? And also, I tried generating Reed-Solomon decoder with the same method and I still face the same error message. I am running out of idea anymore to solve this problem. Do you have any other suggestions?
