Hi, 

I developed a project using Quartus II version 9.1 and incremental compilation. 

Now I would like to use version 10.1 I installed the software but whrn I started a compilation Quartus did a complete compilation: a new sintesys, new merge and new fitting...  

How is it possible to avoid this I just want to use the new software verson to contonue my job, not to statr again from scratch... 

 

Please help me. 

 

 

Stefano

Hi, (not necessarily) look at quartus 10.1 in this forum ;-) 

 

In Quartus 9.1, check the "export_db" (compatible database exportation) option in settings. This will create, at compilation under Quartus 9.1, a "export_db" directory. 

 

In Quartus 10.1 (and newer, and even older ;-) ), you can open the project and it will ask you for an compatible database which is the "export_db" directory. 

 

May it help you. Good luck
