Hello Altera forums,
I have a program based on the Simple Socket Server (RGMII), which I can compile and load to my SOPC with no problems. I'm trying to generate hex files so that I don't have to reload the program every time I program the board. I'm doing this in the eclipse IDE. I right click on my project, click on make targets -> build, then select mem_init_generate The build fails with this error:14:58:32 **** Build of configuration Nios II for project Simple_Socket_BUP ****
make mem_init_generate
Info: Building ../Simple_Socket_BUP_bsp/
make --no-print-directory -C ../Simple_Socket_BUP_bsp/
make: *** No rule to make target `ext_flash.flash', needed by `ext_flash.dat'. Stop.
14:58:32 Build Finished (took 166ms)
I haven't had any success finding a solution to this problem. Do you know where I could find some info to help with this? I am using Quartus Prime 16.1 with the eclipse IDE that is included with this. Thanks!

Hi,
Have you build the project without error? Step 1. Right click on my project, click build project ->if build is successful then proceed to mem_init_generate. step 2. Click on make targets -> build, then select mem_init_generate Let me know if this has helped resolve the issue you are facing or if you need any further assistance.

Which version of Quartus and Nios IDE are you using? Can you attach the exact error message form problems tab of the eclipse? Also, share c file if possible. Best Regards, Anand Raj Shankar (This message was posted on behalf of Intel Corporation)As stated in the original post, I'm using Quartus 16.1 with the Nios IDE included with it. The exact error message is also included in the original post.
The problem occurs with any of the templates, including the count_binary template program, which makes me think my issue is related to my SOPC. Here is a link to the project on github: https://github.com/samdejong86/arria-v-adc-ethernet More specifically, here is the qsys file: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/samdejong86/arria-v-adc-ethernet/master/nios_cpu_qsys.qsys (https://raw.githubusercontent.com/samdejong86/arria-v-adc-ethernet/master/a5gx_starter_fpga_bup_qsys.qsys)Hi,
Used Quartus 17.0 std and project from GitHub: https://github.com/samdejong86/arria-v-adc-ethernet Created a new project for eclipse with .sopcinfo file, And used .ccp files from the project given. I was not able to regenerate the error mentioned. It successfully able to generate mem_init_generate. Kindly compile the full project and create a new project in eclipse and check if still, you are facing the same problem you can use the latest version of the Quartus.

I changed to Quartus 17.1, and the IDE that comes with it, and I was still unable to build the hex files using 'mem_init_generate'. I got the same error message about ext_flash as I got in v16.1Hi,
Kindly check the steps followed or create simple hello world example and try to generate the mem_init_generate file. Referance:https://www.altera.com/content/dam/altera-www/global/en_us/pdfs/literature/hb/nios2/n2sw_nii5v2gen2.pdf Best Regards, Anand Raj Shankar (This message was posted on behalf of Intel Corporation)I think the problem might be with my makefiles. Could you send me the project and bsp files that are working for you?
What OS are you using? I'm running on Scientific Linux 6.5. I've tried on Ubuntu 16.04 as well, with no success Thanks, -SamHi,
I have used Windows 10 with Quartus 17.0 STD. https://drive.google.com/open?id=165xyei_bavrmk8nv30j4c_nbolpx84wz Best Regards, Anand Raj Shankar (This message was posted on behalf of Intel Corporation)I was able to resolve my issue by running this command:
elf2flash --input=ADC_Socket.elf --output=ext_flash.flash --base=0x0 --end=0x07FFFFFF --boot=$QUARTUS_ROOTDIR/../nios2eds/components/altera_nios2/boot_loader_cfi.srec to generate ext_flash.flash. I can now make the project correctly. Thank you for your assistance.
