Build Test Bench without vcs?

jyj-yj commented 5 years ago

I built nv_small RTL with this guide. I got following error and it seems like there's no vcs in my test environment.

Is there a way to test bench without vcs? FYI here's my tree.make.

@jyj-yj wondering if you were able to resolve the issues or close as there was no response?

jyj-yj commented 5 years ago

@prasshantg no response :p btw I figured out how to run test(not this issue, this one), so there's no need to build test bench I guess. I hope you find what you are looking for.

prasshantg commented 5 years ago

@jyj-yj sorry for the no response. I wanted to make sure you are unblocked. Btw we have released NVDLA compiler for nv_small and nv_large if you are trying those configurations.

@jyj-yj @prasshantg the vcs in this case is the Synopsys VCS right? I dont have a license for it. Can I bypass it and build the "ready_for_test" using tmake?

jyj-yj commented 4 years ago

@killerzula yes, it's Synopsys VCS.

btw I figured out how to run test(not this issue, this one), so there's no need to build test bench I guess.

In my case, as mentioned, I didn't need to build 'ready_for_test' any more. I only used files from "tmake -build vmod" to do what I wanted. Maybe you should open your own github issue.
