Hi Aijaz,
I understand that you are facing issues in connecting Xilinx Vivado with MATLAB. Connecting Xilinx Vivado with MATLAB, particularly for using the System Generator, requires a proper setup where MATLAB recognizes the Vivado installation path. If encountering path directory errors, it typically means that MATLAB cannot find the required Vivado executables or the System Generator plugin.Here are some steps to troubleshoot and resolve the issue:
1.Check Installation Paths: Verify that both Xilinx Vivado and MATLAB are correctly installed on the system. For System Generator to work, Vivado needs to be on the system path or MATLAB needs to be explicitly told where to find it.
2.Set Vivado Path in MATLAB: This can be done by adding the Vivado bin directory to the system path environment variable or by using MATLAB commands like “setenv” to set the path within the MATLAB session. For example:
setenv('PATH', [getenv('PATH') ':/path/to/vivado/bin']);
Refer to the link for more information-

3.MATLAB Version Compatibility: Ensure that the version of MATLAB is compatible with the version of Vivado. Refer to the documentation from MathWorks and Xilinx for compatibility information.
4.Check Environment Variables: Ensure that the environment variables related to Vivado, such as XILINX_VIVADO, are set correctly.
5.Error Messages: Pay close attention to the error messages provided by MATLAB. They often contain clues about what is wrong with the path or what MATLAB is unable to find.
If the issue persists after trying these steps, consider reaching out to MathWorks or Xilinx support for further assistance.
Hope it helps!
Best Regards,
Simar
