Using location mapping

Location maps are used to replace prefixes of physical pathnames in the library with environment variables. The location map defines a mapping between physical pathname prefixes and environment variables.

ModelSim tools open the location map file on invocation if the MGC_LOCATION_MAP environment variable is set. If MGC_LOCATION_MAP is not set, ModelSim will look for a file named "mgc_location_map" in the following locations, in order:

• the current directory
• your home directory
• the directory containing the ModelSim binaries
• the ModelSim installation directory
