Error: (vcom-11) Could not find

Hello,

I am trying to do RTL simulation under Questa Intel Starter FPGA Edition-64 2021.2 & Quartus Prime V22.1 Build 917 Lite edition. Device is MAXII cpld.

But when run_msim_rtl_vhdl.do runs, vcom outputs Error:vcom-11 at top.vhd defined the library.

# ** Error: (vcom-11) Could not find cpld_lib.cpld_pkg.

Top.vhd describes the library define under the bellow. Quartus compilation is normal.

------------------------------

library cpld_lib;
use cpld_lib.cpld_pkg.all;

------------------------------

I defined the library using "Create a New library" already under Questa.

I attached Questa screen.

Could you support the solution for this error?

Best regard

    Hello sstrell-san,

    I didn't use Nativelink and ran the .do developed 10 years ago and it compiled successfully.

    Thank you for your support.

    Is that a space in your file path? Questa (and Modelsim before it) notoriously can't tolerate spaces in file paths.

      Hello,

      Thank you for your support.
      I cannot confirm space in the file path.
      Questa recognized the path as the bellow in .do.
      ----------------------
      vcom -93 -work work {C:/Users/NIHO-PC3/SCST2/PTST CPLD/trunk/src/cpld_lib/cpld_pkg.vhd}
      ----------------------

      I'm just trying to rebuild a project using Modelsim from 10 years ago........

    Can you change the file path to remove the space (even just make it "PTST_CPLD") and see if that works?

      Hello sstrell-san,

      Sorry, I understood about the mean of SPACE in the file path.
      I changed the path as your support and show .do as the bellow.
      -----------------------
      vcom -93 -work work {C:/Users/NIHO-PC3/SCST2/PTST_CPLD/trunk/src/serial_tx.vhd}
      vcom -93 -work work {C:/Users/NIHO-PC3/SCST2/PTST_CPLD/trunk/src/serial_rx.vhd}
      vcom -93 -work work {C:/Users/NIHO-PC3/SCST2/PTST_CPLD/trunk/src/heartbeat.vhd}
      vcom -93 -work work {C:/Users/NIHO-PC3/SCST2/PTST_CPLD/trunk/src/crc16_ser.vhd}
      vcom -93 -work work {C:/Users/NIHO-PC3/SCST2/PTST_CPLD/trunk/src/cpld_lib/cpld_pkg.vhd}
      vcom -93 -work work {C:/Users/NIHO-PC3/SCST2/PTST_CPLD/trunk/src/cpld_top.vhd}
      -------------------------
      After re-created a New library, although I executed .do, but error is same.
      # ** Error: (vcom-11) Could not find cpld_lib.cpld_pkg.

    May I know if previous reply solve the issue.

    You may try Nativelink method if applicable (std version) as the flow is pretty straight forward.
