Environment: XDE 11.2.2 - Windows 7 64-bit o/s - Java 1.6.0_27 (32-bit jre)
I am attempting to troubleshoot my application using the signal tracing option of the simulator but I am unable to view the results properly. I can launch the simulation run configuration and when I terminate the session the .vcd file shows up in the XDE project folder. Double-clicking this file just displays the .vcd file in a text editor (as opposed to opening the Waveforms perspective).
However, both the Signals and Waveforms views are empty. clicking on the "read session file" button of the waveforms view just says "No vcd file currently loaded".
Does anyone know of a fix? or at least and alternate way to visualize the .vcd file?
Unable to open VCD file in Signals/Waveforms view

Hi,
Strange, double clicking on the vcd file should open it in the signals/waves views.
Alternatively, if you switch to the 'Waveforms' perspective a 'Load Vcd File' button
should appear in the main toolbar.
Cheers,
Kris.

Turns out it work on my laptop (which is also Windows 7 64-bit). Must be a difference in the Java version or something. Or some corruption in the eclipse workspace .metadata files.
