Hi,

I need to generate HDL Code using Simulink but I have Vivado with full license installed in another PC reachable through a VPN.

Is possible to configure hdlsetuptoolpath to use a remote path? Exists another workaround without installing Simulink and Vivado in the same PC?

Hi Fabio,

this should work on Windows (similar for Linux):

hdlsetuptoolpath('ToolName', 'Xilinx Vivado', 'ToolPath', ...

'\\<computer_name>\Xilinx\Vivado\2022.1\bin\vivado.bat');

However, as I know you need a license for the PC that calls Vivado (means the one with Simulink).

Best regards,

Tom
