Hi friend,
I had gotten some training on fpga advantage.but I have no the s/w at hand now, so I can't repeat the error you run in.
But I think whether you could run/simulate your design in a Modelsim enviorment separately not invoke it in the HDL Designer.

Having trouble compiling a small RAM for my Masters project, iam using the FOR FRAME to create an 8x8 RAM cell.
Heres the problem the design compiles at UNI using fpga advantage 5.3, however at home using version 6.2 the generated output is slightly different and the errors are listed below.

fpga advantage (fomer renior) is a software packge. it has modelsim, leonardo and precision rtl.
you can use these software alone, but with fpga advantage you can manage your (large) design better.

in case student trial, I believe the quartus/xilinx tool are efficient to generate the fpga image.

If you need to learn in a short time, I suggest altera's fpga. Quartus II V4.1 and Modelsim V6.0 should be the best combination for synthesis and simulation within the development process. Cyclone or Stratix would be the best platform to test your fpga design. Xilinx's fpga may need more time to learn in depth but provides more flexibility. (...)

fpga advantage can compile (synthesize) your HDL, but you still need Xilinx ISE to do the place-and-route and to download into the device. See diagram at bottom of page:

You have to start looking first to the hardware (fpga devices) and after you can start thinking in the SW.
If you are a not familiar with fpgas I'll recommend you to use the SW tools from the HW manufacturer (Xilinx or Altera). I don't remember for Altera Quartus but for Xilinx (when using MicroBlaze or the PPC) you also need the EDK, an environ

Yes, I know. Did you try fpga advantage? I just want to compose the tester in C. And I will connect the tester and the UUT(Unit under Test). The whole entity should be called TEST BENCH, right? Therefore, I think your method is right.

My opinion is fpga advantage is the counterpart to active hdl, which includes design entry, simulation and synthesis together by bundling hdl designer, model sim and leonardo, and also more powerful than active hdl.

In the first place questions are:
1) Which kind of schematic
2) Which kind of fpga ?
It is best to use manufacturer library to create a fpga from schematic.
Why?
First of all you can simulate your design and see if it is working as you
expected, in short it will save you a lot of time. Guessing work is rarely a good thing..
