AXI manager not working with Vivado 2023.1

Hi, I am not able to use the AXI Manger (used to be called AXI master) with my project using Xilinx Vivado version 2023.1.

I am doing the hdlsetuptoolpath first and that seems to work fine. But then when I do setupAXIManagerForVivado with the project path I am getting an error. This seems to be only a 2023.1 issue. The AXI manager is working with 2022.1 and 2022.2. But my current project is using 2023.1 and I have to use this version. I am using the latest Matlab release: R2023a. (I only just updated to R2023a from 2022a because I was hoping it would resolve this problem)

Please see that attached screen capture of the command window.

Thanks,

Hi Dan,

Vivado 2023.1 will be supported in R2024a. It's not recommended to use this version for R2023a because it hasn't been tested.

There is a known issue in Vivado 2023.1 that is causing your problem. No version information is returned when running "vivado -version" in Windows CMD. I can give you a patch to work around this issue if you still want to use 2023.1 with 24a.

1. Go to your matlab installation folder
2. make a copy of matlab/toolbox/shared/eda/board/private/programXilinxFPGAUsingVivado.p and matlab/toolbox/shared/eda/fpgaautomation/+eda/+internal/+workflow/VivadoInfo.p
3. use the attached files to replace these two files.
4. Launch MATLAB.
