Error during compilation

Hi everyone, 

 

I'm working on a project in which I have to use DDR2 SDRAM. Therefore, I tried using the DDR2 SDRAM high performance controller via the Megawizard plugin manager. After finishing, however, when I try to compile the design, I immediately get the following error: 

 

Error: Tcl error: More than 1 positional argument specified: C:/Program, Files/Altera/ip/ddr2_high_perf/lib. 

 

Anyone knows how to solve this? 

 

Regards, Tijmen

I think because of space in your directory name.  

Install altera software such that there is no any spaces in directory names.

Installed it again in another directory, and it works. Thanks! However, it seems pretty weird to me that this problem still exists while Program Files is a common directory to install new files.

Avoid to use space in directory name while using any altera tools.

Yes. 

 

Apparently, the processing is through Tcl command line calls. The Megawizard is basically an assembly of Java scripts, it should embed the file path with quotation marks, but it doesn't.
