vector_add included in the DE5a-NET BSP for OpenCL 17.1

After compiled the example source vector_add, I read the project file top.qpf into the Quartus Prime Pro 17.1 and synthesized the system. But Quartus can not generate kernel_system_mandelbrot_kernel_system.ip.

    You are not supposed to import and synthesize OpenCL designs manually inside of Quartus. Use the standard flow provided by the OpenCL compiler itself.

    Hello

    This is not supported flow.

    Follow the steps in the attached document, start with Page 16, you will see the tutorial of compiling OpenCL project.

    Thanks

    Hi, all,

    Thanks for reply. I know the opencl compilation steps, and the system

    can be compiled and run at the FPGA board successfully. My question is

    that when I read into the compiled project file (top.qpf), which is

    generated by the opencl compilation (aoc command), into the Quartus

    Prime Pro, and synthesized it to take a look at the circuit

    architecture, the errors I mentioned occurred.

    Thanks a lot.
