change the langage of the Nios

Hi, I work on an example project. The Nios was creating in verilog (so the toplevel is in verilog). Do you know if there is an option for changing verilog in vhdl ? Or do you know a go...

I am using quartus v9.1 and I found that changing "VERILOG" to

"VHDL" in the .sopc file was not sufficient.

I had to find all of the references to "VERILOG" or "verilog" and

change them to "VHDL" or "vhdl" in the following files:

nios2.ptf

nios2.ptf.8.0

nios2.ptf.bak

nios2.ptf.pre_generation_ptf

nios2.sopc

nios2.sopcinfo

sopcb_tb2_nios2.xml

Only then did sopc builder actually spit out a vhdl version of the system rather than a verilog one.

Imperative:

Altera, add a small menu item to the sopc builder GUI that allows this to be changed at any time!
