A simple example for checking spinal-sim environment

[jijingg]

copy and paste the following code to your project, then make sure this pure simple case work on your env.

import spinal.core._
import spinal.core.sim._

object EnvCheckSim extends App{
  class Sawtooth extends Component{
    val io = new Bundle{
      val inc       = in  Bool()
      val sawtooth  = out UInt(5 bits)
    }
    val myReg = Reg(UInt(5 bits)) init 0
    when(io.inc){
      myReg := myReg + 1
    }
    io.sawtooth := myReg
  }

  SimConfig
    .allOptimisation
    .workspacePath("./simWorkspace")
    .withFstWave
    .compile(new Sawtooth)
    .doSimUntilVoid("Sawtooth") { dut =>
      dut.clockDomain.forkStimulus(2)
      sleep(10)
      dut.io.inc #= false
      dut.clockDomain.waitSampling(10)
      dut.io.inc #= true
      sleep(1000)
      simSuccess()
    }
}

Bug:

Failed to execute simulation and log showed :

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: D:\Project\SpinalHDL\SpinalHDLSimTest\simWorkspace\Sawtooth\verilator\verilator_1.dll: 找不到指定的程序。

Environment:

PC1

OS:WIN10 Intellij IDEA:2019.3.3 JDK:1.13(then 1.8 instead of 1.13) Verilator:4.032 2020-04-04 rev UNKNOWN_REV (mod)

PC2

OS:WIN10 Intellij IDEA:2019.3.3 JDK:1.8 Verilator:4.032 2020-04-04 rev UNKNOWN_REV (mod)

Description

I installed MSYS2 and Verilator correctly according to the tutorial, but it showed the bug mentioned above when run the simulation on PC1 , but it worked normally on PC2.The steps to install MSYS2 and Verilator were the same for both.The previous JDK for PC1 was 1.13. , which I later changed to 1.8, but the emulation still did not run correctly.

@AlkaidDoge check the windows environment variable $PATH, make sure it's clean . https://blog.csdn.net/htgoco/article/details/103940200

@AlkaidDoge check the windows environment variable $PATH, make sure it's clean . https://blog.csdn.net/htgoco/article/details/103940200 I am sure the PATH is clean and the PATH of PC2 could be even messier.

why "assertion failed: Verilator C++ model compilation failed" would happen
