Board installation

[KUcar]

Hi;

I have the board of the DE1-Soc. I'm trying to implement the application here (https://www.intel.co.jp/content/dam/www/programmable/us/en/pdfs/literature/hb/opencl-sdk/ug-aoclstd-getting-started.pdf) with the Intel® FPGA SDK for OpenCL. I work on Quartus 18.1 standart edition. But I'm also having trouble with custom platform installation. First of all I don't fully understand what a custom platform is. How do I install this on my system? I've followed the steps here (https://www.terasic.com.tw/attachment/archive/836/DE1SOC_OpenCL_v02.pdf), but I'm always having errors. I could not find the answers to the questions that asked earlier in the forum. I'd appreciate it if you could help me.

Thank you.

Hi MUsman,

The board_env.xml file shows exactly where it is shown but it gives an error as follows.

"Cannot find board_env.xml in C:\intelFPGA\17.1\hld\board\terasic\de1_soc;"

In my first attempt, AOCL_BOARD_PACKAGE_ROOT showed the position I mentioned(C:\intelFPGA\17.1\hld\board\terasic\de1_soc), it found the a10_ref board. In the following attempts, the above error occurred.

I'm really stuck here.
