Are you trying to use the Starter Edition of Modelsim or the payed version? There's a bug with the dev_com using Starter Edition in 18.0
Hi AndyN,
Thanks, i am using the starter edition. ModelSim - Intel FPGA Edition vcom 10.6c Compiler 2017.07 Jul 26 2017.
i also submitted this issue on Forum.Intel, a little bit different, and looking again at transcript, i am not so sure if it is dev_com, see the snippet below.
vlog-13006) Could not find the package (avalon_mm_pkg). See line 32, 33 in Transcript Code generated by modelsim.
Where can i find this avalon_mm_pkg.sv code, and where should i put it?
i built a PHY for the cyclone10GX. I now want to connect the LL 10G MAC to it, and as test now trying to run the alt_em_10g32_EXAMPLE_DESIGN generated by QUARTUS version 18.0.0 build 219 04/24/2018 SJ Pro Edition with Cyclone10GX libraries. Modelsim version starter edition 10.6C, revision 2017.07.
I managed to get the msim_setup.tcl script running, until i face the following issue : when it compiles avalon_driver.sv, in line 66 it wants to import avalon_mm_pkg, but this file does not exist.
Modelsim reports (after compiling a lot of cyclone stuff) : see snippet, where in line 15 [exec] dev_com stops, and [exec] com starts
