    Hi,


    Unfortunately ModelSim does not have pre-compiled UVM features. You are probably thinking of Questa Sim.


    You need to download UVM source files, you can do that here: https://www.accellera.org/downloads/standards/uvm


    And you'll need to compile the uvm_pkg as well.


    vlog -work work -sv -stats=none C:/work/ST/simulation/tb_captur_1.sv <uvm_pkg path>/uvm_pkg.sv +incdir+<UVM source path>/src


    Regards,

Hi,

Maybe you downloaded the wrong UVM source file? It's odd that you're seeing this error because our internal team has fixed this error in Quartus v17.0.

OK I shall close this thread. I’m glad that your original question has been addressed, I now transition this thread to community support. If you have a new question, feel free to open a new thread to get the support from Intel experts. Otherwise, the community users will continue to help you on this thread. Thank you.

Hi Nurina

I use the UVM src together with the modelsim installation. I think it should has best compatibility.

You mentioned the error has been fixed in Quartus. My installation of elder version 20.1, only include modelsim starter edition, no Quatus 20.1 installed. Would this installation type runs well?
