Some problems happened when try example of hls

Question

Dear allI am a starter for hls,I have some problems, when I try this example "counter" as ug-hls-getting-started.I am using VS2010 professional and Quartus 18.1 lite.I don't know where is wrong.Thanks for your support!The detail information as below:C:\intelFPGA_lite\18.1\hls\examples\counter&gt;build.bat test-x86-64i++ -march=x86-64 counter.cpp -o test-x86-64.exemsvcrt.lib(crtexe.obj) : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol __imp_Sleep referenced in function __tmainCRTStartupmsvcrt.lib(crtexe.obj) : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol __imp_EncodePointer referenced in function pre_c_initmsvcrt.lib(atonexit.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol __imp_EncodePointermsvcrt.lib(unhandld.obj) : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol __imp_SetUnhandledExceptionFilter referenced in function __CxxSetUnhandledExceptionFiltermsvcrt.lib(atonexit.obj) : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol __imp_DecodePointer referenced in function _onexitmsvcrt.lib(gs_support.obj) : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol __imp_QueryPerformanceCounter referenced in function __security_init_cookiemsvcrt.lib(gs_support.obj) : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol __imp_GetTickCount referenced in function __security_init_cookiemsvcrt.lib(gs_support.obj) : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol __imp_GetCurrentThreadId referenced in function __security_init_cookiemsvcrt.lib(gs_support.obj) : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol __imp_GetCurrentProcessId referenced in function __security_init_cookiemsvcrt.lib(gs_support.obj) : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol __imp_GetSystemTimeAsFileTime referenced in function __security_init_cookietest-x86-64.exe : fatal error LNK1120: 9 unresolved externalsHLS Link x86-64 FAILED.Run test-x86-64.exe to execute the test.C:\intelFPGA_lite\18.1\hls\examples\counter&gt;

It seems like you are missing the linking of libraries for VS.

Did you run initialization script prior to running compilation ?

https://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/programmable/us/en/pdfs/literature/hb/hls/ug-hls-getting-started.pdf
Page 8

• On Windows systems, initialize your environment as follows:
a. In your command prompt session, change directories to the hls directory in
your Intel Quartus Prime installation directory.
For example, C:\intelFPGA_pro\18.1\hls
b. Run the following command from the hls directory to set the environment
variables for the i++ command in the current terminal session:
init_hls.bat
The command prints out the modified environment variable settings.
The environment initialization script shows the environment variables that it set,
and you can now run the i++ command from this command prompt session.

Yes, I did as the document hls/ug-hls-getting-started.pdf

C:\intelFPGA_lite\18.1\hls\examples\counter>init_hls.bat

Assuming current directory (C:\intelFPGA_lite\18.1\hls\) is root of i++

Will use C:\intelFPGA_lite\18.1\hls\..\quartus to find Quartus for internal i++ use

Quartus at C:\intelFPGA_lite\18.1\quartus\bin64\ will be used for any direct use

Will be using Modelsim at C:\modeltech64_10.7c\win64\

Adding C:\intelFPGA_lite\18.1\hls\bin to PATH

Adding C:\intelFPGA_lite\18.1\hls\host\windows64\bin to PATH

C:\intelFPGA_lite\18.1\hls\examples\counter>build.bat test-x86-64

Run test-x86-64.exe to execute the test.

Its hard to guess, do you have multiple versions of  Visual Studio installed ?

"If you have multiple versions of Visual Studio, Microsoft recommends installing Visual Studio versions in the order in which the versions were released. For example, install Visual Studio 2010 before installing Visual Studio 2015. For details, see Install Visual Studio Versions Side-by-Side in the MSDN Library"

Or perhaps try on a different machine, with a fresh installation of  Visual Studio/ Quartus Prime Lite.

thanks,
Arslan
