graham chow Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 Hi All, I new here so hi. I thought I might create my own on youtube Arty Tutorial... It is really basic verilog logic only tutorial. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JColvin Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 Hi graham, Very cool! Thank you for taking the time to post your project on our forum! We have a few projects of our own on the Arty board (as you likely saw in our Wiki), but I don't think we have any video tutorials for the Arty board yet. I do have a question though; it looked like you were using Vivado on Windows 10. As of this point in time, I don't Xilinx offers official support for Windows 10, so I'm curious if there's anything you had to do in particular to get Vivado working on Windows 10 with licensing and whatnot. Thanks, JColvin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
graham chow Posted February 14, 2016 Author Share Posted February 14, 2016 Worked fine for me on Windows 10 [Version 10.0.10586] (type ver in the command line - you might have 10.0.10240) - I just went through the process and it worked fine for me. There are different versions of Windows 10 out there, and being a coder I do know they behave differently - a bit painful. I went through your 3 tutorials, they are great.

ngong Posted February 28, 2016 Share Posted February 28, 2016 Hi Graham, thank you for this terrific piece of information. Worked super for me - even though I did not know nothing about Vivado and Verilog. Maybe for a very newbie - like me - it is good to know that the Arty board needs a board_file in Vivado/2015.y/data/boards that has to be copied from Digilent (https://reference.digilentinc.com/doku.php?id=arty) Design Resources / Vivado Board Files – Wiki prior to following your nice presentation.

Bianca Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 Nice project! Thank you for sharing it with us! JColvin, about windows10, even if it's not yet official from Xilinx, Vivado 2015.4 does work on W10. I tested it on some projects with Basys3 and it worked flawless. You don't need extra configuration for it, just the classical installation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyhol Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 I am new to vivado, I installed 2015.4 last night and I have the vivado working but windows 10 tells me that SDK app will not run on my computer. Any helpful words of advice? I did the change to MSVS redist 2012 version 4 to get the vivado to work Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bianca Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 Hello Andy, did you checked at installing to install SDK too? It's not automatically installed. Bianca Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyhol Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 Yes I did, Bianca. I have the Icon for xilinx sdk 2015.4, when I run it a console screen pops up then I get the message box from win10 that tells me "This app can't run on your PC" "To find a version for your PC, check with the software publisher" Oh just realized this is a shortcut to a .bat file which in turn calls loader.bat file which is 584 lines long. Been a very long time since I dealt with .bat files and never something this big. Anyone have any ideas of where to start to figure this out? Does anyone have the SDK running on Win10?

andyhol Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 The problem appears to be with "rdi_xsdk.exe" Anyone have any ideas to get it to work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyhol Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 Looks like it might be a bad download file should have checked the md5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyhol Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 I re-downloaded it checked the md5 and installed it and now the SDK tells me that the libboost_filesystem.dll is missing, try reinstalling. Oh joy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JColvin Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 Hi Andy, I asked some of our applications engineers to take a look to see if they have experienced this problem (making sure that the question doesn't get dropped). Thanks, JColvin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyhol Posted March 16, 2016 Share Posted March 16, 2016 Thanks JColvin, I am also on xilinx forum and they don't seem to be responding To add information, I looked harder and SDK was actually giving me four different file it was missing libboost_program_options.dll libboost_filesystem.dll librdi_common.dll librdi_commonversion.dll Not really sure where to go from here. Thanks again Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewHolzer Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 Hi Andyhol, Can you check the <Xilinx Install Dir>\SDK\2015.4\lib\win64.o and check to see if the dlls that you've listed appear in that folder? If they are missing, you will more than likely have to reinstall Xilinx SDK or create copies of those dlls from another source into that folder. Let me know what you find.

andyhol Posted March 18, 2016 Share Posted March 18, 2016 I have uninstalled - installed it several times, I think I might have it working. One thing to note is if you start from a admin console window you get more error messages. In my situation, the sdk would not start from the start menu, but if I called the same file from a console it would. I created a desktop shortcut pointing to that file and it worked also. I have not tested to see if the sdk can be opened from within vivado though. I can at least get it running, now I just need to play with it and see if it works. Thanks for the help folks, and sorry for stealing your thread Graham, I plan to start playing with my arty now Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewHolzer Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 I'm glad that you were able to sort the issue out. It sounds like you had to do a lot to get it working though. I hope you enjoy playing with your Arty, as I've definitely had a great time working with mine. Have fun! Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ggunderson Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 Graham C., Thank you for posting this tutorial! Your video got me going with Arty! I was a bit flummoxed trying to find my way "in" and get a Hello World experience and I have you to thank for making it easy and direct. Well done! Graham G.
