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.

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". homin jiang Message: 4 Date: Fri, 7 Aug 2015 14:50:41 +0000 From: "Michael D'Cruze" <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Subject: [casper] VHDL black-boxing: basic issue To: "'[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>'" <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Message-ID: <am2pr01mb0385dc4804c6367dcdff39828a...@am2pr01mb0385.eurprd01.prod.exchangelabs.com<mailto:am2pr01mb0385dc4804c6367dcdff39828a...@am2pr01mb0385.eurprd01.prod.exchangelabs.com>> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" 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 -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment scrubbed and removed.
