Hi everybody
I am using Xilinx Ise8.1i with modelsim6.
My modelsim has xilinx schematic libraries and then I had no problem with simulating my projects, but when I made a project that it contains 2 schematic Macro model in top level schematic...I see an error when simulating.
THAT ERROR IS:
****************************
Error loading design
# Error: Error loading design
# Pausing macro execution
# MACRO ./sch1.fdo PAUSED at line 7
****************************
If anyone knows the reason for this problem with macros...please tell me.
Thank you very much.
 

Maybe you need to take a look at the macro inside
 

no my macro doesn't have any problem. I simulated it by Ise simulator and that was true...but with modelsim I have this problem.
also I simulated the body of macro as an independant project in modelsim and modelsime simulated it ...but when I use this macro or another macros in a schematic projest ...I have this problem.
 

I found the problem and solved it.

Hi,
Just for knowledge, what was the problem and how do u solved it? it will help others to increase their knowledge.

thanks

Hi
For this projest first I built two schematic and then I made two macro model with them and I used these marcomodels in a bigger design as two elemants.
But When simulating my project with Modelsim I had an error that the modelsim don't know my macros and they weren't in modelsim simulation libraries.
for solving the problem, I added those two subcircuits of these two macros to my project...and with this my problem removed.Because now when simulating, modelsim replaced may macros with their subcircuits and simulated them.
be successful
