The ModelSim-Altera software is Altera specific and supports behavioral and gate-level timing simulations and either VHDL or Verilog HDL simulations and testbenches for Altera PLDs.

The tool allows to simulate the functional behaviour of the system. The ModelSim ALTERA STARTER EDITION (Figure 4) uses the HDL design files and vendor libraries to create a simulation of the hardware design.

I guess you could also point Quartus at /modelsim_ase/linux instead of the bin directory, but the vco script seems to do some command translation which may or may not be relevant to the current versions of the development environment. You could also edit the vco file to change the one reference to linux_rh60 to use linux instead. On my system I have created a soft link of the linux directory to linux_rh60 (in the modelsim_ase directory, do "ln -s linux linux_rh60") For Linux kernel versions 2.4.7 to 2.9 it uses the files in modelsim_ase/linux otherwise it defaults to the non-existent modelsim_ase/linux_rh60 directory. That script is supposed to work out the best version of the proper executables to run. That bin directory doesn't contain executable files but has placeholder soft links to a script called.

If you follow the regular guidance and configure Quartus to point at the install of modelsim-altera starter edition, you will point it at something like /12.1sp1/modelsim_ase/bin It works or not depending on which Linux kernel version you're using. I've been trying to get this working under Ubuntu 12.04, and appear to have succeeded. It would be very interesting and helpful for me if anybody can tell that he has managed to use the starter edition of ModelSim-Altera with version 12.1sp1 under Linux. Same problem with Cyclone II and Cyclone IV devices:( Try using other older devices such as Cyclone II and see if that works I uninstall QuartusII and Modelsim-Altera and install again many times, but it wasn't work.Īre you able to perform Analysis and Elaboration successfully? If yes, try to do RTL Simulation again using NativeLink.

I am using Quartus II 9.0 Web Edition and Modelsim-Altera 6.4a Starter Edition under win7 and win8.I'm getting the same error in both OS.Īfter compiling,when I start the simulation,I got three errors:Įrror: Can't launch ModelSim-Altera Simulation software - make sure the software is properly installed and the environment variable LM_LICENSE_FILE or MGLS_LICENSE_FILE points to the correct license file.Įrror: NativeLink simulation flow was NOT successfulĮrror: Quartus II Full Compilation was unsuccessful. May this be the cause for my problem?ĭoes anybody managed to simulate a Cyclone V device with these SW versions?

On the other hand I learned from Altera documentation that ModelSim is 32 bit only.

I tried to start the simulation by choosing tools->run simulation tool->rtl simulation.įrom the Altera documentation I learned that I need 64bit SW to compile a Cyclone V device This seems to be true because I tried it with Windows 7 32bit and failed when the fitter tried to get more than 2 GByte of RAM. Nevertheless I am asked for it when trying to start a RTL simulation. When reading the Altera documentation my understanding was that I do not need any license file with modelSim Altera Starter Edition. I can compile this design with almost now warnings, but I cannot simulate it with ModelSim Altera Starter Edition. I started with a very simple design (8 bit counter) just to learn the tool flow.

OS CentOS 6.4 64 bit, 8 GByte physical RAM.
