Why does the simulation of my Altera® AXI BFMs fail?

Description

In the Quartus® Prime Pro Edition Software, a VHDL testbench generated by Visual Designer Studio or Platform Designer using Altera® AXI BFM will error out. The Altera AXI BFMs only support testbenches generated in Verilog HDL or System Verilog HDL.

In the Siemens* Questa* Simulator, the error message may be similar to this:

** Error: <file name>.vhd: (vcom-1598) Library "<library name>" not found.

 

Resolution

To avoid this problem, generate the testbench in Verilog HDL or System Verilog HDL.
