Hello @jobermueller,
what Git branch have you used? The ModelSim setup routines are under construction. I have implemented a lot of changes, but these are not uploaded yet, because some testing is needed. I need to change and reorganize a lot in the ModelSim configuration routines due to some new ModelSim flavors like Intel ModelSim Edition and Microsemi ModelSim Edition.
As a work around you can specify a normal ModelSim and specify the path your Altera version. You can also skip ModelSim setup in a first configuration round to get a valid setup and restart configuration for Mentor or Altera tools.
Kind regards Patrick
I used the master branch, with the last commit being 3c6e9265fd21305a9c9fe79e561ae2b85fb12eb5. Regarding the workaround - the patch posted above did it for me, just wanted to inform you of that issue.
I appreciate your work. Unfortunately, there are a lot of different ModelSim flavors with different feature sets, each with another directory setup.
So the natural conclusion would be to make the directories configurable and provide a meaningful default.
The directories can be configured by the user, but before he can type in the directory, the system is guessing default directories based on vendor, tool name, tool version, tool flavor and operating system. This solution is presented to the user as a default (for pressing [return]).
Hi, when configuring PoC for Intel Modelsim Starter Edition, I encountered the following problem:
I looked for the cause and found the following workaround (same as it's done in the respective files for Altera):
This furthermore fixes the default installation path ("ase" instead of "ae" for starter edition of modelsim). If you prefer a pull request over the patch, just let me know.
