Ampcrypt for Synthesized Files

[nltennyson]

I've recently started testing out the Ampcrypt and Amplic tools and have only been able to successfully encrypt and use source files, but not something like a .qxp file. Quartus seems to regard an ecrypted .qxp as corrupted, even with the license provided. Is there a way to encrypt and use a .qxp, or other synthesized netlist files?

Unfortunately, the answer is no.

The Ampcrypt tool cannot encrypt your .qxp file. It can help encrypt your source files, such as Verilog or VHDL files.

You can encrypt your files and export them as .qxp files, but you cannot export the design partition first and then encrypt the .qxp file.

You will have to encrypt each source file one by one, or you can write your own script to automate the process.
