quartus_sh and $PATH

1,831 Views

On a linux box (and this may or may not be the same for Windoze), I recently noticed that if I try to exec something normally in my shell $PATH from quartus_sh, it is not found.

If you enter quartus_sh with 'quartus_sh -s', then type 'exec env', you'll get a listing of the environment variables as understood by quartus_sh. To my horror, I found a variable called QUARTUS_ORIG_PATH containing the correct path. PATH itself seems to be overwritten asPATH=/opt/altera/10.1/quartus/adm:/opt/altera/10.1/quartus/linux64:/opt/altera/10.1/quartus/linux:/usr/bin:/bin

Why? :confused:
