Error: (vcom-11)

[Altera_Forum]

Hi, 

 I am trying to get started with DSP Builder and I started with a demo (as per chapter 4 of DSP Builder User Guide).  I tried to verify the design by selecting "Verifying at subsystem level" but I am getting some errors.  Please guide me in resolving these errors.  Following is the output I got while verifying the design:  Verifying model demo_firi dspba.verifyModel('demo_firi', 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, '', '', '', '', '') Warning: The file containing block diagram 'demo_firi' is shadowed by a file of the same name higher on the MATLAB path. This can cause unexpected behavior.

You havent mapped the altera libraries.

Hi,  

 Even I am facing the same problem.  Since it is a demo, will it contain the Altera libraries already mapped? or Should we explicitly map them?  Thanks, Suresh

[Altera_Forum]

any installation of modelsim altera edition should have the libraries and the libraries should already be mapped. If not, they can be easily mapped either through the gui or via the vmap command.

These answers aren't sufficient - you can map altera_mf through the library compilation and still get this error.
