systemc license for SystemC designs in Questa SIM

Hi,

I have been going thru tutorials on how to use Questa simulator, based on following document:

Currently I am at the following chapter:

I have Stratix-10-MX FPGA, with QuestaIntel Starter FPGA Edition-64 2022.1

When I tried to build example design, the following error message showed up:

QUESTION:

- do i need systemC license to build example design ??

- and if yes, where should i look into if i want to get one ??

Thank you,

Have a nice day,
TH

    Dear TH,


    Based on the statement you have shared, you have Quartus Prime Pro, that's mean you have Questa*-Intel® FPGA Edition which is fe not the fse. - You may want to change your usage to fe instead of fse.


    If you do not have the license for fe, and willing to use fse, you need to generate free license from https://licensing.intel.com/psg/s/


    Thank you.

    Your response is confusing. Will the free license work for compiling and running systemC?
