after I use sopc builder create a NiosII system, there's a file named altera_europa_support.vhd. 

 

why there is that file? 

 

After I compile the project named lights.qpf (entity name is also "lights"), why it produce a file lights_time_limited.sof, but not the lights.sof? 

 

Thank you very much

The file lights_time_limited.sof is created because you are using one or more time-limited megafunctions.  

The licence you have is a evaluation (time-limited / open-core plus) licence.  

So if you have a full licence a lights.sof will be created.
