Once the variable is set, you can use it for library mappings in the following

manner.

If using the

vmap

command (p89) command from DOS prompt:

vmap MY_VITAL %MY_PATH%

If using

vmap

from ModelSim/VSIM prompt:

vmap MY_VITAL \$MY_PATH

(The "\" followed by a "$" will substitute the variable using Tcl syntax.)

If you used DOS

vmap

, the

modelsim.ini

will appear as below.

MY_VITAL = c:\temp\work

If you used

vmap

from ModelSim/VSIM prompt, the

modelsim.ini

will appear

as below.

MY_VITAL = $MY_PATH

You can also use the following to map to libraries with additional hierarchy:

vmap MORE_VITAL %MY_PATH%\more_path\and_more_path

vmap MORE_VITAL \$MY_PATH\more_path\and_more_path
