ELBREAD: Error: The contents of entity '<entity_name>' instantiated in architecture '<architecture_name>' differ from the contents available during the compilation of this architecture

Solution

The above error can occur if the working library is not cleared properly before compiling your files. To avoid the error, clear any previous simulation data and then compile your files.

To clear the simulation data from the working library within the GUI

• Right-click on the working library

• Select Delete simulation data

To clear the simulation data from the working library within a script

Add the adel command after the mapping of each library.

adel -lib <library_name> -all

So in your script, when you create a library (alib command), map the specify library (amap command), then you need to refresh the contents of library. So with adel command you can just delete the library and its contents. Then it will compile the specific files for the library.
