DE2-115 USB example problems

Altera_Forum · ‎03-04-2015

I'm trying to run the DE2_115_NIOS_HOST_MOUSE_VGA example but in the c code from the nios II there is an error, in the line

IOWR(CY7C67200_BASE,HPI_MAILBOX,0xCE01);

Symbol 'CY7C67200_IF_0_BASE' could not be resolved

the problem was that i'm using 14.0 Quartus version and example are in 11.1 and the links for the Include files in the Nios project are in "C:/altera/11.1/quartus...", so adding new Include files from "C:/altera/14.0/quartus...". solve the problem

But now when i try to run the project, shows new errors

make: *** [../DE2_115_NIOS_HOST_MOUSE_VGA_bsp/-recurs-make-lib] Error 2 DE2_115_NIOS_HOST_MOUSE_VGA C/C++ Problem

make: *** [obj/HAL/src/alt_alarm_start.o] Error 1 DE2_115_NIOS_HOST_MOUSE_VGA_bsp C/C++ Problem

make[1]: *** [obj/HAL/src/alt_alarm_start.o] Error 1 DE2_115_NIOS_HOST_MOUSE_VGA C/C++ Problem

and from the console

Try creating an empty nios C appliction or hello world project and BSP in the software IDE. This will set the compile options as needed for the current version. Then add the your files. This will get everything compiled with command line options used by the current compiler.

You will likely still have problems, but they will be different and hopefully easier to get around.
