IBM

rs6000.tar

 

 

All platforms

docs.tar ( ModelSim manuals in pdf format)

 

 

In addition to the platform-specific file you need to extract base.tar (common ModelSim files) and docs.tar (documentation).

3Add the pathname of the ModelSim executable directory to your search path (use one of the following):

/usr/modeltech/sun4

/usr/modeltech/sunos5

/usr/modeltech/hp700

/usr/modeltech/rs6000

If are using shell scripts that require platform independence, you can use the vco command within the path of your shell script to return the platform directory to your search path. Vco returns a path appropriate for the hardware from which you are invoking the simulator. The shell you are running determines how you add vco to your path:

• for csh:

set path = ( $path /usr/modeltech/‘/usr/modeltech/vco‘ )

• for sh (Bourne or Korn)

PATH=$PATH:/usr/modeltech/‘/usr/modeltech/vco‘

export PATH

4If you are using SunOS 4, and are planning to load shared libraries, you’ll need this path included in the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable:

/usr/openwin/lib

5Enter or edit the license.dat file in the modeltech directory. Typically the

file looks like this (also see "Licenses - ModelSim EE" (p29)):

SERVER hostname nnnnnnnn 1650

DAEMON modeltech ./modeltech ./options
