Radiant 2023.2 SP1: Why does Lattice PCIe X4 IP v2.3.1 ModelSim simulation using Radiant 2023.2 SP1 show an error "Fatal: (vsim-3381) Obsolete library format for design unit. Design unit ../RadiantIPLocal/latticesemi.com_ip_pcie_x4_2.3.1/testbench/pcie_tb.bfm_pcie_model"?


Description:
This is a bug in Radiant 2023.2 SP1

Solution:
The obsolete library format error can be resolved by following the steps below.


1) In the ModelSim environment, on the left-hand window (Library pane)
2) Right-click the library specified on the error message, in this case it is 'pcie_tb', choose the 'Refresh' option. This will start the library refresh process.
3) After that go back to run the file_name.mdo


 

 


 

Or use the equivalent Tcl command:

vlog -work ../Users/<user name>/RadiantIPLocal/latticesemi.com_ip_pcie_x4_2.3.1/testbench/pcie_tb -refresh -force_refresh

Example:

vlog -work C:/Users/<user name>/RadiantIPLocal/latticesemi.com_ip_pcie_x4_2.3.1/testbench/pcie_tb -refresh -force_refresh
