DPC++ Flags -> Quartus

When using dpcpp to compile for an FPGA target, is there a way to control the number of threads that the Quartus tools can use? sh,80458 -c cd ../oneAPI-samples/DirectProgramming/DPC++FPGA/Referen...

Hi @CHughes,

Is the mention aoc.pl perl script being used to build the oneapi project?
Unfortunately the mention build flow is not a typical build flow we have here, would you be able to share more details on the steps needed and also the perl script for us to check further? Or any guide that you are following?

As well, the mention run line seems to specify Xsparallel twice which might cause the overwritten.
While mention that user have no control over it, hence would suggest perhaps to use the makefile to compile the oneapi project instead. (more reference can be found here)
Hope that clarify.

Best Wishes
BB

aoc.pl is called by dpcpp (there is nothing irregular about the compilation process); you can see the tree above: dpcpp->clang->perl. The user specified Xsparallel is being passed down but the Intel tools are inserting a duplicate, which is likely causing the user value to be overwritten.
