Problem Title:
2.1i COREGEN, VANTAGE, VHDL: Error: Configuration "cfg_beh" cannot be created because the
library already has a configuration with the same name. (util/LBR/58)
Problem Description:
Urgency: hot
General Description:
Some VHDL simulators like Viewlogic Vantage do not allow you to compile a
VHDL configuration of a given name more than once in a library. Because (Xilinx Solution #6250)
directs you to specify the VHDL models in the XilinxCoreLib library with wildcards
you may encounter this problem of recompiling the same configuration and see
errors like the following:

**Error: Cannot create configuration CFG_BEH in library "WORK"
(C:\Temp\Test7\xilinxcorelib.lib)
because configuration with the same name already exists.
(libAccess/127)
The existing configuration is associated with "C_BUFT BEHAVIORAL".
(libAccess/131)
**Error: Unable to create configuration WORK.CFG_BEH of
C_PULLUP(BEHAVIORAL). (compiler/driver/56)
--
5/6 design unit(s) compiled successfully.
Syntax summary: 0 error(s), 0 warning(s) found.
The errors are seen with the PULLUP, BUFT and C_LUT models.
As the error message indicates, Vantage does not allow you to compile configurations
with the same name, although this is a perfectly valid thing to do.
Solution 1:
The "cfg_beh" configuration declarations for PULLUP, BUFT, and C_LUTare all located
in the prims_sim_arch.vhd file. They are actually empty declarations and can simply be
deleted from this model.
