Cannot access $ieee in modelsim.ini

Hi,

The correct Tcl grammar would be "set ieee directory", without assignment symbol. The line inside the default installation generated modelsim.ini is "std = $MODEL_TECH/../std". Here is the full .ini:

After launching modelsim, what is weird is that

>set ieee# can't read "ieee": no such variable

but we can assign and read back:

set ieee "C:/intelFPGA_lite/16.1/modelsim_ase/std"# C:/intelFPGA_lite/16.1/modelsim_ase/std

set ieee# C:/intelFPGA_lite/16.1/modelsim_ase/std

So it seems that the line for ieee in modelsim.ini was ignored. Should that be?
