I am new to FPGA software development, and I am trying to create a simple NIOS II for getting used to the system.
Currently I am running Quartus Prime Version 23.1 running on a pretty fresh version of windows 10.
The FPGA is a cyclone 10GX running on a Cyclone 10 GX dev kit.
I don't know if it is my PC setup but the Eclipse setup seems incredibly unstable.
For the last few hours I had been succesfully maninging to run and debug a very simple C programme. Now all of a sudden I cant attach to the dev kits as I keep being told "Downloading ELF Process failed"
Running "eclipsec-nios2.exe" there seems to be a "throw debugException: error -4"
I have tried turning everything on and off again, rebooting my pc etc.
The downloading of the setup of the FPGA through Quartus' programmer seems to work consitantly everytime, but the eclipse side of it does not seem reliable.
Does anyone have any suggestions as I do not know what to do with this

Hi,
Greetings and welcome to intel's forum.
You may have a look at this workaround as starting from Quartus version 19.1 and onwards, Eclipse is no longer included in full installation of Quartus and here are the steps to install it separately : https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/programmable/articles/000086893.html
Thank you.

Hi Kelly,
thank you for the repsonse, but I had already been using elcipse installed the in the way you had mentioned.
I have managed to get further now by using a simple Quartus project a colleague had created for me. Currently I am not sure what he did differently to me, but I suspect it is down to him manually editing the address space, whereas I was letting the platform designer Auto Assign Addresses. This is just speculation however as I am currently happy working on software rather than fighting against Ecplise, I shall wait to see how I can break it later!
Many thanks
