i did some step forward. it looks like in the build directory there's a
file called complex_multiplier_sim_netlist.v that allows simulation however
when calling the simulation from an OOT directory the IP is rebuilt under
that directory and that file is not created.
unfortunately the sim/complex_multiplier.vhd being created is not usable as
it causes the simulator to crash.
any suggestions on how to have this done by the simulation makefile?

thanks,
Dario
