Problem Title:
Xsimmake 5.2: Error message says to run functional simulation
Problem Description:
If your design contains any Xilinx ABEL, X-BLOX, or MemGen blocks, you have to run XSimMake with the
functional flow before running XSimmake with the timing flow, if your design contains any Xilinx AB
EL, X-BLOX, or MemGen blocks.
Solution 1:
The functional flow does a lot of preliminary work that is required for the timing flow. For Viewlo
gic, it creates both a simulation schematic and a functional VSM file that is necessary for timing s
imulation.
If you do not have any of these special blocks in your design, then you can just create a VSM file f
rom the schematic. The restriction is that you must have in the current directory all the files nee
ded to create the functional VSM file.
