The old "manual" method missed zeroing the string before the first use, thus creating random garbage before the file names. |

model-ghdl
A wrapper for GHDL to make it look like Mentor's ModelSim. Helpful for use with programs like Sigasi.
Compiling and use
First install ghdl from github and install GtkWave. Model-ghdl expects to find the ghdl and gtkwave executables in the system $PATH.
Then, to compile the wrapper, simply do the following:
git clone https://github.com/cclassic/model-ghdl
cmake .
make
The five modelsim applications should now be present in the current folder as symlinks along with a model-ghdl binary. Either install these into your path or point your IDE to the location of the files.
VCOM
Original commands
- -work top: Set top level
- -workdir dir: Set working directory
- -87, -93, -93c, -2000, -2002, -2008: Set VHDL version
Additional commands
- -ghdl param: Supply these arguments directly to GHDL (can be used multiple times)
- -no-precompile: Compile the files not until calling vsim. (Faster syntax check, but longer wait time for the simulation to start.)
Notes
- cwd is expected to be the compile directory
- Recommended arguments: -ghdl --ieee=synopsys -ghdl -fexplicit -ghdl -frelaxed-rules -ghdl -P/path/to/lib
VSIM
Original commands
- -gui work.toplevel(RTL): Set toplevel and work library
Additional commands
- -ghdl param: Supply these arguments directly to GHDL (can be used multiple times)
- -gtkwprefix prefix: Prefix for the .gtkw save file. Path will be $cwd/$prefix$toplevel.gtkw
- -type extension: Set simulation output file type. Can be: ghw (default), vcd or fst
Notes
- cwd is expected to be the source directory (used for .gtkw save path)
- Recommended arguments: -gtkwprefix gtkwave/ -ghdl --ieee=synopsys -ghdl -fexplicit -ghdl -frelaxed-rules -ghdl -P/path/to/lib
