I can use "printf("Hello from Nios II!\n");" to print "Hello from Nios II!\n " when I run the code on FPGA board. 

However when I try to print a int, the compiler(Eclipse) doesn't generate the elf file and there is a error... 

How can i solve it? 

 

int test = 10; printf("test = %d\n", test);

Why would you expect someone to know what's going wrong when you didn't even post the error message you've been getting?

Yeah, it is hard to guess your problems. I think if you could get the error messages out, Galfonz could point out easily. 

 

A few questions 

1. Is this normal hello world or small hello world?  

2. Maybe program size overflow? What is the size of the allocated memory in Qsys? 

3. Maybe C code bug/typo?

Check if you are using reduced driver or something to reduce size of elf in the options..

I solved the question by using bigger on-chip memory. I change the memory from 40Kbytes -> 100KBytes, then I can print the int. Btw thank you for you guys replying.
