Has anyone noticed any problems with Nios II on Quartus 4.2?
Specifically I've upgraded to Quartus 4.2 and am running NIOS II sp 1 When doing a build at the final stages I get a make -s all Syntax error: "(" unexpected make: *** [C:/altera/NIOS/blmcore2/full_1c20_sim/dummy_file] Error 2 Build completed Now the elf seems to be built correctly as it can be downloaded and run but this error stops the flash programmer running (since it always does a build). It seems that the error is due to a problem in one of the auto generated make files but it is pretty hard to find out where, any suggestions? (To try and trace the problem I've tried it on a different OS boot and also tried re-installing NIOS II sp1 back over top but the error persists) ...RegardsLink Copied

Do you have access to Nios II 1.1? If so, I'd recommend using it.

According to Altera,
'Quartus 4.2, is not compatible with NIOS II SP1, and this fact will be added to the Quartus 4.2 pages in a promiment place'. Hey ho, and no i don't have access to it so will just have to wait for the 20% compilation speed increase when Nios 1.1 arrives. http://forum.niosforum.com/work2/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif- Mark as New

Can you use the eval version available through the forum till the CD arrives?

Hello cybdenw,
I "solve" this problem by doing this : - run your project, it will compile and give the error you mentionned - delete the dummy_file - create a new text document - rename it as dummy_file - re-run your project, it will finish the interrupted compilation (actually rebuild the flash images), it should work. I know it is very annoying to have to do so, but it is the only way I found.... Hope it helps, Yours
