Quartus db issue - Martin Schoeberl - 2005-12-01 08:09:00

I was now searching for an error in my design for
hours....
As a last try I removed the folder db in the quartus project
folder, compiled again and -- voila, the design worked!

Weird!

BTW: I'm invoking Quartus in batch mode from a Makefile.
Anyone had similar experiences?

Martin

Hi Martin,

    This problem was reported by the Altera applications group on Monday 
this week and we will have a fix ready. This global patch which is 
undergoing testing will be made available by Friday noon and a link will 
also be posted here. This problem is seen if you are compiling a design 
which has encrypted IP. This affects Nios II designs and four of the 
communications cores.  In the meantime delete the db directory. This problem 
only affects Quartus II 5.1. Earlier versions of Quartus are not afected.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.

Hi Subroto,

thanks for the reply. I've added a 'rm -r db' in my Makefile ;-)
However, my design does not used any encrypted IP, just plain
VHDL files.
