Adding generated IPs as library in Questa

Hello,

I am using Quartus Prime Pro 24.1.

I have generated a DC FIFO for Agilex 7 with simulation model "VHDL" and Modelsim flow "Traditional".

I like to add the FIFO as Library in Questa but Questa claims the library to be "unavailable".

How is it correctly done ?

I have attached my generated IP.

Kind regards

    Hello,

    I have found the solution. Thank you

    I just expected msim_setup.tcl do the whole work but compile of libraries and simulation files was not exectuted.

    In my opinion a msin_setup should setup everything, preparing the project with its libraries ready for simulation.

    Kind regards

    Running "msim_setup.tcl" created the corresponding library directories, but they are empty.

    What is missing is the "fifo_1927" library.

    How do you integrate the library into Questa from the generated IP? What is missing ?

    The help "Design Simulations" and "Introduction to FPGA IPs" did not provide any new insights for me.

    kind regards

    Hello,

    For every action in Questa, the program is set for 5 seconds and then the action is carried out.

    Could it have something to do with the Questa Floating license?

    kind regards
