How can I import files with VHDL Special Types into SmartDesign?

To work with a VHDL file with Special Types, you must:

  1. 1.Drag and drop the entity into SmartDesign and connect it just as you would with any other SmartDesign instance.
  2. 2.If an unsupported data type is used on entity ports the following error will be thrown.
    Error: Cannot instantiate module 'module_name'  from file 'file_name'. The module/entity 'module_name' uses unsupported data types for the ports..
  3. 3.Generate the SmartDesign.
  4. 4.Continue with the Libero SoC Design Flow steps (Synthesis, Simulation, etc.).
