ALTPLL Megafunction simulation error

Hello All, 

 

I am trying to simulate Altera_soft_LVDS megafunction using external PLL using ALTPLL megafunction. If I start simulation in Modelsim tool I am getting this type of errors in transcript

hello vish2648 

 

I have faced the same problem with you. 

I think you also use the library in modelsim.(Compile->StartSimulation Windows: In "Design" choose the tb file; In "Libraries" SearchLibraries->add: add the suitable library-> OK) 

 

This problem may be caused when verilog is used  in the IP but the VHDL library is choosed.  

 

for example library altera: altera is VHDL library 

 

 

                     altera_ver(*_ver) is verilog library. 

 

Though it is too late to write back to you. 

 

Wish you solve this problem. 

 

Forgive me the poor English.
