Hi, I've recently upgraded to Quartus 4.2 and
discovered the
Incremental Compilation feature. Has anyone had any problems using this
feature, anything I should know before trying it out? If anyone has
anything to share please let me know. I'm using Quartus 4.2 for my
Stratix design.

Thanks,
joe

Hi Joe,

I'd strongly recommend that you upgrade to Quartus 5.0 to use incremental 
compilation.  Quartus 4.2 supported only incremental synthesis.  That is the 
synthesis engine was incremental, but it wasn't integrated with an 
incremental capability in the fitter.

In Quartus 5.0, both the fitter and synthesis support incremental 
compilation.
