AR# 33271 11 EDK - "WARNING:EDK:797 - Cmd failed: \cygdrive\c\tools\Modeltech_6.4b\win32\vsim -version"

Description

Keywords: Modelsim, vsim, default, preferences, mapped, mount, drive, location

When I set the simulator path, the Cygwin mounted drive is used instead of the normal Windows drive which results in the following warning message:

"WARNING:EDK:797 - Cmd failed: \cygdrive\c\tools\Modeltech_6.4b\win32\vsim -version"

For example, while in XPS, if I select the Default button in Preferences -> Simulation, the following path is used:
\cygdrive\c\modelsimdir\vsim instead of C:\modelsimdir\vsim

Solution

To correct this problem:
1. Select Edit > Preferences.
2. Under the Simulation Category, modify the Simulator path as follows:
Change:
\cygdrive\c\
To:
C:\
