Advanced .jbc files with normal compilation flow

Question

Hi.From the Programmer Utility you can create an advanced .jbc file from a .pof file. (E.g. program configuration and user flash partitions in Max10)If you enable .jbc file generation through the Device&amp;Pin Options =&gt; Programming Files settings, the .jbc file is generated from the .sof file only and only capable of configuring a Max10.Is there a way to make an advanced .jbc file as part of the normal compilation flow?Best regardsNikolay

I've found the solution on MAX10 device's "Configuration User Guide".
On section "3.2.2. Generating Third-Party Programming Files using Intel QuartusPrime Programmer" is described the additional options available on quartus_cpf to generate the JAM file with the desired property "DO_REAL_TIME_ISP".
From the user guide:"quartus_cpf -c &lt;input_pof_file&gt; &lt;output_jam/jbc_file&gt; -o background_programming=on"

Hi Nikolay,You can create .jbc file using Quartus Programmer.Add your .pof file. Choose which CFM/UFM you want to program. (My case I choose CFM0 and UFM)Then, go to file --&gt; Create JAM, JBC, SVF and ISC file.Then, choose .jbc file.I hope this will help.Cheers.

This is not what Nikolay asked about. He already stated that he knows how to do it using the programmer..

The question was

"Is there a way to make an advanced .jbc file as part of the normal compilation flow?"

Hi Shafiq.There is a project assignment that can potentially be used in this case: POST_FLOW_SCRIPT_FILEhttps://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/programmable/support/support-resources/design-examples/design-software/tcl/auto_processing.htmlThe next question is therefore:What is the tcl/shell command to make the advanced .jbc file as you described above?RegardsNikolay

Hi Nikolay,You can use quartus_cpf command to convert input file (.sof or .pof or .cdf file) to .jbc file.Here the example the command:quartus_cpf -c  &lt;input_sof_file&gt; &lt;output_jbc_file&gt;quartus_cpf -c  &lt;input_pof_file&gt; &lt;output_jbc_file&gt;quartus_cpf -c  &lt;input_cdf_file&gt; &lt;output_jbc_file&gt;I hope this will help.Cheers
