This compiler hint appears when a Harness Type is found but a matching definition cannot be found in a Harness Definition file. This can happen for one of two reasons:

  1. A Signal Harness is connected to an object (Sheet Entry, Port or Harness Entry) with an unknown Harness Type.
  2. When a Harness Entry in a Harness Definition file refers to an unknown Harness Type

The message is displayed in the Messages panel in the following format:

Unknown Harness Type HarnessType

where

HarnessType is the current unknown Harness Type.

Default Report Mode

Fatal Error

Recommendation

Use the Compile Errors dialog to cross probe to the offending object and then ensure that Sheet Entries, Ports and Harness Entries have a known Harness Type and Harness Definitions are accurate.
