Hi everyone,
I have generated an altera_soft_lvds IP from the IP Catalog of Quartus Prime and I got three useful files :
- altera_soft_lvds.qip
- altera_soft_lvds.v
- altera_soft_lvds_0002.v (located in a sub_folder)
I would like to re-generate this IP with a Makefile from only the altera_soft_lvds.qip and altera_soft_lvds.v files (altera_soft_lvds_0002.v is not saved in our Git server)
I "succeed" to re-generate the IP with the following command :
ip-generate --mw-variation-file=altera_soft_lvds.v --file-set=QUARTUS_SYNTH --output-name=altera_soft_lvds
but I get only ONE .v file (altera_soft_lvds.v) instead of 2 files (altera_soft_lvds.v & altera_soft_lvds_0002.v)
Someone knows how to re-generate this IP with the same file structure ? I think this is with the --submodule-naming-pattern option but I'm not sure and I don't understand how to used it.
Thanks for your help.

HI @CBRUN12
Would you try using the GUI to regenerate files instead of running over the command lines?

Hi @JwChin
I would like to use the command lines instead of the GUI.
By using the command lines, the number of generated files is not the same as GUI (total of 1 .v file with command lines instead of 2 .v files)

Would you check if running the GUI would generate the same number of files? I want to know what is the results of GUI vs command line.

GUI vs command line doesn't generate the same number of file:
- GUI: 3 files (altera_soft_lvds.qip, altera_soft_lvds.v, altera_soft_lvds_0002.v)
- Command line: 2 files (altera_soft_lvds.qip, altera_soft_lvds.v)
Both work properly but file construction is not the same.

Hi @CBRUN12
Are there significant benefit running over command lines over GUI?
I believe the GUI has other commands running on the background besides the one you are running.
I would recommend that you generate the files using the GUI and not via the command lines.
