Multiple .vqm files have module with the same name, which is causing an error.

[MarkZop]

Hello,

I currently am building a design that has multiple .vqm files. When I attempt to synthesize the top level, I receive an error that is ultimately due to 2 .vqms having a module with the same name. As a workaround, I can set the syn_netlist_hierarchy attribute to '1', to flatten the netlist, resulting in unique names, but ideally I'd like to maintain the hierarchy. Is there a better solution? Is there a way I can explicitly define a module's netlist name such that I can ensure they are unique?

This is ultimately what I'm seeing.

Verilog HDL warning at vqm_file_a.vqm(319302): overwriting previous definition of fifo_gen_async_0 module File:

Verilog HDL info at vqm_file_b.vqm(9156): previous definition of module fifo_gen_async_0 is here File:

Verilog HDL error at vqm_file_b.vqm(2391): can't find port "rx_fifo_read_count_0"

Thanks!

Try to compile each .vqm file into a separate design library by Specifying a Destination Library Name in the Settings Dialog Box:

1. On the Assignments menu, click Settings.
2. In the Category list, select Files.
3. Select the file in the File Name list.
4. Click Properties.
5. In the File Properties dialog box, select the type of design file from the Type list.
6. Type the library name in the Library field.
7. Click OK.
