hello everybody,


i've built a block in modelsim that reads from file and makes some calculation.. i want to display out a message & stop simulation or do something that alerts & declares end of file readings within wave window and stop executing "run" command any more..
i did a flag that is set to '1' when reaching end of file so its visually seen within wave window and running simulation is not halt yet i still can "run" it..

any idea how can i do this plzzz....



thanks..
 

first question - what language?
The way to stop a simulation is to halt all stimumus (usually that means stopping the clock) or kill it via an assert failure.
 

easiest way to kill a testbench:

assert (something_is_true) report "something_is_true is now false" severity failure;

To stop a clock you simply get the clock process to hit a wait;
