[help]error in simulation and synthesis

i want to do rtl simulation and synthesis.Now i have two questions:

1. does it need c compiler (cc) in sunstudio to compiler the c code ? can gcc do this job?Because when use"sims -group=core1_mini", the error shows that there are no cc or CC package.

2. we use design_compiler ver.2002.05 to compile fpu_add,but it indicate synopsys.vX-2005.09 is the synthesis tool for this chip.so can syn ver2002.05 work well?

Hi,for sure you have to download and install Sun Studio 11 since GCC is not supported.Sun Studio is now free and you can download it from http://developers.sun.com/prodtech/cc/products/get.htmlCheers,Fabrizio

You do need C/C++ compiler, it's tested with SunStudio,

so please download SunStudio.

Regarding EDA tools version numbers: Best solution is

to use same version number as described in the

documentation.

Other versions of the tool may or may not work, if they do work,

please post the tool and the version numbers to this forum.

yeah, i think sunstudio is the necessary componet to the verification. And synopsys v2005.09 or above is also necessary . Thx to your reply. :-)
