Note: Because the ModelSim - Intel FPGA Edition software provides precompiled simulation
libraries, you do not have to compile simulation libraries if you are using the software.
Complete the following steps to compile the simulation model libraries using the
Simulation Library Compiler:
1. On the Tools menu, click Launch Simulation Library Compiler.
2. Under EDA simulation tool, for the Tool name, select your simulation tool.
3. Under Executable location, browse to the location of the simulation tool you
specified. You must specify this location before you can run the EDA Simulation
Library Compiler.
4. Under Library families, select one or more family names and move them to the
Selected families list.
5. Under Library language, select Verilog, VHDL, or both.
6. In the Output directory field, specify a location to store the compiled libraries.
7. Click Start Compilation.
Complete the following steps to add the simulation files to your project:
1. On the Assignments menu, click Settings.
2. In the Category list, select Files.
3. Click Browse to open the Select File dialog box and select one or more files in
the Files list to add to your project.
4. Click Open, and then Add to add the selected file(s) to your project.
5. Click OK to close the Settings dialog box.

2.10.3.2. Custom Simulation Scripts
You can automate simulations by creating customized scripts. You can generate scripts
manually. In addition, you can use NativeLink to generate a simulation script as a
template and then make the necessary changes. The following table shows a list of
script directories NativeLink generates.
