Is there any way to run all the Nios2EDS features without installing the QuartusII?

Hello, everyone! 

 

Is there any way to run all the features of the Nios II EDS without installing the Quartus II??:confused: 

 

If you can not, is there any way to install only the command-line mode? 

 

The case is this: I have a whole hardware design ready, I need not stir. 

 

I'm doing an integration with the Nios II software for a VB.NET application that will call a script programming flash memory ... (by Shell). So, do not need the features of Quartus to Build and download the data to the flash. 

 

I saw this post 

bit.ly [dot] hhq8TY 

But I need more than that. I need to compile the project. 

(The C is modified by application VB.NET

 

Since already I thank you.

Why not just run gcc and ld from the command line as well ? 

These could be extracted from the install (on another system) or just download the sources from the altera ftp site and build them. 

There are instructions on the wiki.
