56 Working with the Altera Development Environments
Setting Component Search Paths
To work with an FPGA design that includes FTXL components, you must add the
components to the Quartus II and SOPC Builder library paths. In addition, for
the FTXL reference design, you must add the DBC2C20 components to the
library paths.
In the Quartus II software, you can add the FTXL components to the global
library paths so that all projects can access the FTXL components, or you can add
the FTXL components to the library path for a specific project.
To add FTXL components to the Quartus II global library path:
1. Start the Quartus II software.
2. Open a Quartus II project, such as the FTXL reference design.
3. Select Tools → Options to open the Options window.
4. In the Category area on the left side of the Options window, select Global
User Libraries (All Projects).
5. In the Global User Libraries (All Projects) page, click the browse button
(…) to the right of the Library name field to open the Select Directory
dialog.
6. In the Select Directory dialog, select the
[ Altera ]\nios2eds\components\FTXL directory, and click Open.
7. In the Global User Libraries (All Projects) page, click Add to add the
FTXL components to the Libraries area. Click OK to save the updated
library path setting and close the window.
If you want to add the DBC2C20 components to the global library path, specify
the [
Altera ]\nios2eds\components\DBC2C20_sram_interface directory in step 6.
To add FTXL components to a specific Quartus II project library path:
1. Start the Quartus II software.
2. Open a Quartus II project, such as the FTXL reference design.
3. Select Assignments → Settings to open the Settings window.
4. In the Category area on the left side of the Settings window, select
Libraries.
5. In the Libraries page, click the browse button (…) to the right of the
Project library name field to open the Select Directory dialog.
6. In the Select Directory dialog, select the
[ Altera ]\nios2eds\components\FTXL directory, and click Open.
7. In the Libraries page, click Add to add the FTXL components to the
Libraries area. Click OK to save the updated library path setting and
close the window.
If you want to add the DBC2C20 components to the project library path, specify
the [ Altera ]\nios2eds\components\DBC2C20_sram_interface directory in step 6.
You do not need to add components to the project library path if they are already
in the global library path.
