how i can use the FPGA Bitfiles in modelsim

[thamer]

hi how i can use thr FPGA Bitfules in modelsim coz that file model sime cant read it and i cant read from any program coz it rabish

and thank u for ur help

LabVIEW FPGA bitfiles are specific to LabVIEW FPGA targets and cannot be used in other software. LabVIEW FPGA is currently not designed to work with ModelSim. If you are looking to build in troubleshooting tools you can implement some simple UI components that tell you if your code is behaving as expected. If you have suggestions on how you would like to integrate these platforms, the LabVIEW FPGA R&D team is always looking for feeback, just post your ideas on the idea exchange.

Hello thamer,

While FPGA bitfiles can't be used with ModelSim today, we are considering this functionality for the future. Can you tell me more about your application and your need for ModelSim? Do you require cycle-accurate simulation?  

Thanks,

With LabVIEW FPGA 2010, users now have the ability to export their FPGA VIs to VHDL for simulation in ModelSim. This feature also generates a VHDL testbench template for creating a model of your host and environment. You will have to be familiar with VHDL to use this.

Can I see or export the VHDL Code from LabView?

As far as I know this is currently not possible.
