When trying to add component level IP into Labview FPGA the program crashes (non-gracefully) when performing the check syntax.
Steps to reproduce
Load Project (Happens with a new unsaved project as well).
Under FPGA Target (<Any Device>) -> Properties -> Component-Level IP
Select Create File
Add any VHDL file (also used the DemoClipAdder.vhd from the High-Throughput Example)
Choose User-defined IP
Check Syntax
As syntax is being checked, the following appears in the log :
Built simulation executable x.exe
Fuse Memory Usage: 136412 KB
Fuse CPU Usage: 468 ms
Labview hangs for a couple of seconds then crashes
Alternatively :
Load Project (Or create a new project)
Under FPGA Target (<Any Device>) -> New -> VI
In Block Diagram, add IP Integration Block
Save VI
Double click IP Block
Add Synthesis File -> DemoClipAdder.vhd
Check Syntax (Completes successfully in this flow)
Generate
The following is produced in the log:
Built simulation executable x.exe
Fuse Memory Usage: 136668 KB
Fuse CPU Usage: 421 ms
Labview Hangs for a couple of seconds then Crashes
I have tested this multiple times with multiple projects and FPGA devices with the same result every time.

Hi ThatOtherGuy
I have followed the steps to try to reproduce your problem but I have not been able to reproduce the error. I used this link to create the file and used notepad to create the file.
The Check sintax is successful and I do not get any error.
Have you try to do this in a different computer?
Which operating system do you have?
Which version of LabVIEW and drivers are you using?

It seems to happen on all of the computers in my workgroup using Labview 2012.
I am using Labview 2012 32 bit version 12.0f1 on Windows 7.
I am not sure how to check the driver version.

Hi ThatOtherGuy
You can check the driver’s version on MAX.
Launch MAX (Start»Programs»National Instruments»Measurement & Automation).
Expand My System>> Software
Here you can check all the driver and software version of National Instruments.
