My guess is something to do with the setup. Just to have a fast confirmation 1) Are you following the HLS starting guide guide ? did you run the init_hls.bat first? User need to run this *.bat before any compilation as it will setup the environment. 2) Did you installed the VS 2010? when you manually go to the path c:/program files (x86)/microsoft visual studio 10.0/vc/bin/link.exe , did you see the link.exe file is present? 3) This error is saying user is adding a 32 bit link file for usage which is incorrect, HLS have to use the 64 bit link file. \VC\bin\amd64\link.exe

Hi,

and thank you for your answer.

1) I followed the HLS starting guide and ran the init_hls.bat.

2) I'm using Quartus Prime Pro 18.1 with patch 0.04. That is why I installed VS 2015. File C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\VC\bin\link.exe is present.

3) File C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\VC\bin\amd64\link.exe is also present. I changed my PATH variable to C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\VC\bin\amd64\ and rebooted (!).

Problem is solved, but was followed by the linker not possible to find 'msvcprt.lib'. I had to set the include and lib path:

Set INCLUDE="C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\VC\include;C:\intelFPGA_pro\18.1\hls\include;"
 
Set LIB="C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\VC\lib;"

Now the problem is:

In file included from counter.cpp:1:
C:/intelFPGA_pro/18.1/hls/include\HLS/hls.h:16:10: fatal error: 'type_traits' file not found
#include <type_traits>
