Hi guys,

Just to say that Xilinx came back with a pretty standard response, evidently 
not reading through my message thoroughly enough. After explaining a second 
time, the only suggestion they could come back with was to reinstall everything 
(Matlab, Xilinx ISE etc.) which I’ve now done, and the black boxing seems to be 
working.

If anyone comes across this in future….”brute force” reinstallation worked for 
me. Though I still have no idea what caused the problem in the first place.

Thanks
Michael

Hi Michael:

Which version of toolflow you are using ?
If V14.7, following is my own solution, hope that help:

  *   Or right click the "black box" on the library icon, then select the VHD 
file, for example, amiba2_v147/fft_1k_core.vhd. This vhd file has the same name 
as the one under amiba2_v147/fft_1k_core. Don't get mess up.
  *   copy the *.m file from the subdirectories to upper level. i.e. copy 
fgain_core_config.m from /amiba2_v147/fgain_core to amiba2_v147. Because the 
black box only search the config file in the same directory.
  *   Check the " this_block.addFile('vhd')" in the config.m file, it has to be 
correct vhd filename, for example: "cdelay_core.vhd", not just "vhd".

Hi Casper,

I'm trying to black box some of my larger blocks (PFB, FFT), initially 
following tutorial 6 and the memo on the wiki. Both say that, as soon as the 
black box is dropped into the model, it should throw up a dialog box allowing 
me to link to the pre-compiled code. However, this dialog doesn't come up. I 
can't see any other instances of this on the mail archive... does anyone have 
any ideas how to solve this, or get the block to manually link to the .vhd 
file? I can't see anything obvious from within Simulink. This seems a really 
silly problem!

Thanks
Michael
