17 years agoOk well I got around that problem by running the Fitter and then the Timing Analyzer. The new problem is that the simulation is not interpreting the state signals of my vhdl code. I wrote the code so that q will equal one of five states that run in sequence. The simulator fails to recognize this. While creating the Vector Waveform file, I had to use Node finder. In Node Finder, the state signals are not .....in an acceptable form for the simulator I assume? Because when I drag them over to the waveform file and click "Start Simulation," I keep getting warnings like:
warning: signal state does not exist in waveform. ignore comparison settings on this signal.warning: ignored node in vector source file. can't find corresponding node name "state.s0" in design.
warning: ignored node in vector source file. can't find corresponding node name "state.s1" in design.
warning: ignored node in vector source file. can't find corresponding node name "state.s2" in design.
warning: ignored node in vector source file. can't find corresponding node name "state.s3" in design.
warning: ignored node in vector source file. can't find corresponding node name "state.s4" in design.
warning: ignored node in vector source file. can't find corresponding node name "state~0" in design. I am pretty sure it is something very simple that I overlooked or didn't realize, but can someone help me out?
