Problems with VHDL code generation #160

Closed andrewandrepowell closed 2 years ago

andrewandrepowell commented 2 years ago

Hello!

I'm trying to utilize the VHDL Generator for a HW Design. The Verilog Generator seems to work fine, but I keep getting the following error messages.

VLNV: ::: was not found in library.
VLNV: ::: was not found in library.
The design ::: referenced in component <the HW Design component> was not found in library

So, from my limited understanding, the component ending with "*.design" is what the error message is referencing. However, even after looking at the XMLs directly, I can't figure out what's missing.

Any amount of assistance would be appreciated!

EDIT:

After close examination, it appears there's a field under HW Component -> Views -> hierarchical -> Design instantiation that's not getting filled with the design. It feels as though this field should get populated? Any hints on how to set the field from the tool?

Never mind! Managed to figure out my own problem after more looking. I have to associate the design with the HW component by adding the design instantiation and then I can select it in the view.
