Hi @Newport_j,

I do not have experience with HLS but looking at the popup you need to build a testbench with function main() defined. Here is a tutorial for HLS that covers test benches.

thank you,

Honestly, I thought that I did. I am confused, because I was following the tutorial for Vivado. 17.4.I used the Vivado HLS tutorial for HLS UG871 (December 2017 edition).

I will have to do  some checking.

Thanks so much for your help.

I have got it now. Thanks you very much. The link that you gave me with the HLS tutorial. It is fine, but incomplete. is there more to it? The tutorial has several chapters and that was only the first. Do you have any succeeding chapters?

Any help appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Hi @Newport_j,

I found that link with a google search. I did not find any additional chapters.
