Hi Suraj, Thank you for your response! I upgraded ruby to 1.8.7 but I still get the same error. I also tried to install Icarus verilog on a different computer (Ubuntu this time, the first one was running RHEL 5) but with no luck, I get the same error message again..
Then I tried to install an older version of Ruby-VPI. 21.0.0 crashes with the same error, but 20.0.0 works a lot better! However, the example didn't run right away. It complains about the setup methods in the specification: counter_spec.rb:27:in `load_test': undefined method `setup' for Spec::Example::ExampleGroup::Subclass_2:Class (NoMethodError) I played around with it and changed 'setup do' --> 'before :each'. Now it runs without any complaints, but I'm not very familiar with RSpec so I don't know if the two lines actually do the same thing? -Nikolaj > -----Original Message----- > From: ruby-vpi-discuss-boun...@rubyforge.org [mailto:ruby-vpi-discuss- > boun...@rubyforge.org] On Behalf Of Suraj Kurapati > Sent: 7. september 2010 18:58 > To: ruby-vpi-discuss@rubyforge.org > Subject: Re: NameError when simulating with ncsim > > On Tue, Sep 7, 2010 at 12:49 AM, Nikolaj Andersen <niko...@novelda.no> > wrote: > > When I run ‘rake ncsim PROTOTYPE=1’ the simulator crashes with the > following > > error message: > > > > [user.c:23] Ruby-VPI: error: rb_require('ruby-vpi/boot/relay') failed > with > > status 6 > > [user.c:23] Ruby-VPI: error: rb_require('ruby-vpi/boot/loader') > failed with > > status 6 > > ruby: uninitialized constant RubyVPI (NameError) > > ncsim: *F,INTERR: INTERNAL ERROR > > > > I am running this on Cadence ncsim64 version 09.20-s014, ruby-vpi > version > > 21.1.0 and ruby version 1.8.5. > > Please try using Ruby 1.8.6 or 1.8.7. I'm afraid that 1.8.5 is too > old.
