QSF file location

Hi, 

 

Does Quartus require the "*.qsf" file to be same level as the Quartus project file? I want to keep the QSF file with source files from different path. When I try to load *.qsf file from different path, Quartus doesn't recognize *.qsf file. 

 

Thanks, 

Kevin

Hi, 

 

I don't know for sure, but probably it has to be in the same folder as the project file. However the .qsf file is a script file made with TCL commands (both generic TCL as Altera specific commands). 

You should be able to call other files from within that .qsf file. This can be done with the "source" TCL command; http://www.tcl.tk/man/tcl8.5/tclcmd/source.htm

 

Good luck!
