hi,

type compxlib -h ... then you get help info on how to use it

compxlib -s mti_se -f virtex:u -l verilog -o c:\tmp

this is for Modelsim SE for the Virtex Chips ... u stands for unisim
language verilog and output dir c:\temp

hope this helps ...

Best to compile all libraries :

CD to ISE root directory

compxlib -s mti_se -f all -l all -o .

Note the "." at the end

The instructions are below. Keep your fingers crossed if the tool is not VITAL2000 compliant (see underneath). Good luck!

delay (delayed by technology)

Running CompXLib from the Project Navigator GUI (6.1i or later)

1. Click the appropriate device (e.g., xcv50-6bg256) in the Sources in Project Window.
2. Right-click Compile HDL Simulation Libraries in the Processes for Source Window.
3. Select Properties.
4. Set the applicable Simulation Library Compiler Properties (click Help for a description of each property).
5. Click OK.
6. Double-click Compile HDL Simulation Libraries in the Processes for Source Window.

NOTE: Only the simulation libraries applicable to the selected device for your project are available for compilation. If you want to compile all Xilinx Simulation Libraries, run CompXLib from the command line (see below) and use the "-f all" option.

Running CompXLib from the Command Line (5.1i or later)

To obtain the usage information, type "compxlib" at a command prompt. Run "compxlib -help" for details.

Examples of using CompXLib with officially supported simulators are provided below. In all examples that do not use the -p option, it is assumed that the environment is set up for the desired simulator.

ModelSim PE (PC example)

This example compiles all of the libraries into the specified directory:
compxlib -s mti_pe -f all -l all -o c:\modeltech_5.6b\xilinx_libs

If multiple versions of ModelSim are installed, point to the desired executable directory:
compxlib -s mti_pe -f all -l all -o c:\modeltech_5.6b\xilinx_libs -p c:\Modeltech_5.6b\win32

6.1i COMPXLIB - "ERROR: Could not open library vital2000 at vital2000: No such file or directory"

General Description:
Using COMPXLIB to compile simulation libraries from the command line results in an error similar to the following:

"ERROR: Could not open library vital2000 at vital2000: No such file or directory
