Unable to generate simulation files for avalon memory mapped read, write and slave IP

I have an existing QPP project, where I want to generate simulation files, so that I can better understand the inter module communication and data flow. I'm getting following errors in the generate dialog box:

Error: av_mm_master_wIP_2: av_mm_master_wIP does not support generation for Verilog Simulation. Generation is available for: Quartus Synthesis.

Error: Avalon_MM_Slave_cIP_0: Avalon_MM_Slave_cIP does not support generation for Verilog Simulation. Generation is available for: Quartus Synthesis.

Error: av_mm_master_readIP_0: av_mm_master_readIP does not support generation for Verilog Simulation. Generation is available for: Quartus Synthesis.

    What are these? Is this in Platform Designer? Where are you seeing these errors? What exact steps are you following? More details needed.

    Yes, this is in Platform Designer. When I open existing IP in Platform Designer, I go to Generate -> Generate HDL -> simulation model -> Verilog. When I go ahead, I get this error in the Generate dialog box saying, "Generate completed with errors and warnings".

    Then that means whatever these components are, they do not have simulation models available for them.

    If these are your own custom components, they need to have Verilog simulation model files specified in the Component Editor when the component is created for this to work. You can specify the same design files should be used for both synthesis and simulation, but if no simulation model files are specified, you'll get these errors.

    SStrel is right, the error message simply mean it is not supported for simulation.


    What IP that you are using in the platform designer? Can you attached your design for us to have a look?
