    Syntax

    vsimmatlab instance
    vsimmatlab instance <vsim_args>

    Description

    Note

    Use this command in ModelSim™, not in MATLAB®.

    vsimmatlab instance loads the specified instance of an HDL module for verification and sets up ModelSim so it can establish a communication link with MATLAB. ModelSim opens a simulation workspace and displays a series of messages in the command window as it loads the packages and architectures of the HDL design.

    You can run this command from the HDL simulator prompt or from a Tcl script shell (tclsh).

    example

    vsimmatlab instance <vsim_args> uses additional vsim command line arguments.

    Examples

    collapse all

    In ModelSim, load the HDL module instance parse from the library work, establishing communication with MATLAB.

    ModelSim> vsimmatlab work.parse

    Input Arguments
