How to open BSV file?
The most common problem when using Bluespec System Verilog is that a specific BSV is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that BSV files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the BSV file icon you want to open. If the operating system has an appropriate application to support it and there is also an association between the file and the program, the file should be opened.
Step 1. Install Bluespec Development Workstation
The first step is to check if the computer has the Bluespec Development Workstation program installed. This can be achieved by typing Bluespec Development Workstation into the operating system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open BSV files.
Programs to open BSV file
Remember to download programs supporting BSV files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Bluespec Development Workstation with BSV files
If, despite the installed application, the BSV file does not start in the Bluespec Development Workstation application, you must create a file association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Bluespec Development Workstation application as the default for handling the BSV file.
Step 3. Update Bluespec Development Workstation to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Bluespec Development Workstation program with the Bluespec System Verilog file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Bluespec, Inc. page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the BSV file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:
The BSV file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the BSV file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the BSV file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover BSV files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the BSV file. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular BSV file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Bluespec, Inc., but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted BSV files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move BSV to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the BSV file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the BSV file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
