Hi,
I find a strange problem relating to Quartus 7.2 and Modelsim 6.1g,
web edition. For functional simulation, all is OK. For timing
simulation, the component cannot be recognized by the testbench
routine. I notice that in the work lib of Modelsim, the path sign is
"\", not the same with the other's "/".
Such as:

C:\altera\72\qdesigns\...

It should be:
C:/altera/72/qdesigns/...


I cannot find any menu to change the option in both Quartus and
Modelsim. Could you tell me that? Thanks a lot.

Hi,
Further infomation about the problem. When I recompile the file, the
result is correct. And its command is like the following:

vcom -93 -work work C:/altera/72/qdesigns/vhdlQadd/simulation/modelsim/
addp.vho

I find the .do file generated by Quartus 7.2 has the problem command
line:
vcom -93 -work work {addp.vho}

It does not give the full path of addp.vho. Could you tell me where to
set it correct, in Quartus or Modelsim? Thank you very much.

"\" has caused a great deal of confusion

ModelSim uses Tcl Command Syntax there backslash "\" symbol means
backslash substitution. If you wanna got to path "C:\altera\72\qdesigns
\..."
you should type C:\\altera\\72\qdesigns\\... or C:/altera/72/
qdesigns/... or { C:\altera\72\qdesigns\... }.
Backslash substitution is not performed on words enclosed in braces,
except for backslash-newline.

RTFM: Tcl and Macros (DO Files) > Tcl Command Syntax
