altcam simulation problem

Dear all,

I got a problem when simulating altcam in quartusII.

When I wrote data into some address, it could not

change the content of the memory initial file(.mif).

Is there anyone who knows the reason?

Best regards.

    Confused. The .mif file is your input file and shouldn't change unless you directly overwrite it. A write to memory in simulation will change the contents of the RAM in that simulation only, it's not meant to change the original .mif.
