Making new library

Altera_Forum · ‎06-10-2015

Hi, I have vhdl file containing package declaration. Right now, I am calling that file (package) from work lib. But I want to create a new lib in which that package is included? How can I make new lib in Quartus II?

You can use either GUI or commands specific to Quartus (or ModelSim) and you either create library or map to existing one.

The simplest Quartus example is this:

qsf:

set_global_assignment -name VHDL_FILE C:/project1/my_package.vhd -library my_lib

(alternatively use add files to project => properties => library then see the commands added in qsf)

Then in vhdl:

library my_lib;

use my_lib.my_package.all;
