How do you force pin location in AHDL?

Question

altera_forum · Answer

I dont think you can. You have to do it via the assignments editor and locate top level pins.

I have done it in the past, perhaps with MaxPlusII and not Quartus.

But I think it can be done (if not it should be a added feature).

SUBDESIGN clk_divider

(

sw0 : input @ y11 ; --y11

)

I know how to use the assignment editor, so I can make it work, just want to make life easier.

AHDL is no longer being developed and is no longer recommended, so I doubt you will get any new features added.

I need to read that Verilog book I purchased 10 years ago.  Turns out it's easy to use the pin assigner to quickly assign pins.  Thanks for helping!
