Hello all,

I launched a testbench simulation using NativeLink and I got these errors reported in the ..._nativelink_simulation.rpt file.

Error: (vsim-SDF-3250) MBHPCP_State_Controller_with_MAX3000A_for_test_vhd .sdo(0): Failed to find INSTANCE '/system'.
Error: (vsim-SDF-3894) : Errors occured in reading and resolving instances from compiled SDF file(s).

Please what does it mean and how can I resolve it?

Thanks in advance.
 

Looks to me like you aren't applying the sdf to the correct level of hierarchy.
 

Thanks ads-ee for the reply.

I had figured what I didn't do right. I just looked a little more closely and I realized that I had omitted a port in the component instance in the testbench. However, the compilation now proceeds to 85% with these messages (I have provided only this latter part of the entire messages) and then it gets stucked. It has been running for the last couple of hours without proceeding from there.

I cannot tell what the I haven't done right.
Any help is well appreciated.
