Synplify Pro on Diamond or Radiant: can't see compilation errors
Description:
In Diamond or Radiant when using Synplify Pro, there are instances where you are unable to see the error messages on the Message tab.
Solution:
This is an ongoing enhancement with Synopsys for Radiant and Diamond. This is estimated to be fixed in a future release of Radiant/Diamond.
For now, see the following workarounds:
1. Putting something in the RTL and saving the project. For example, adding a comment and pressing Ctrl+S will allow the errors to show up.
2. Reopening the project.
3. Manually looking at the logs to verify the errors.
