Hi

 

The HLS compiler can convert the HLS targeted C/C++ code to the RTL.

https://www.intel.in/content/www/in/en/software/programmable/quartus-prime/hls-compiler.html

You can also convert C files for hardware acceleration to HDL using NIOS II ,C2H compiler also.

https://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/programmable/us/en/pdfs/literature/wp/wp-aghrdwr.pdf

But to be exact , if you have a general purpose C program , it will not be 1:1 converted to VHDL using Quartus.

The conversion happens to support the specific functions at the target hardware.

 

Thanks and Regards

Anil
