Quartus 12 build from pipeline

I have an old project using Quartus 12 and NIOS2 IDE v12,build 178.

This is a legacy system which I still have to maintain for a long time, so I wanted to see if I could get this into a pipeline build like all the new projects.

Everything compiles without issues when using Eclipse, but as soon as I try to do this from commandline nothing works :)  Guessing that Eclipse does some magic, but have not been able to figure out what.

Does anyone here have any experience with building these old projects from commandline ? If so any suggestions and tips would be highly appriciated.

    Hi ove,

    how about showing your batch file and where it fails?

      Hi FvM​ 

      Stuck in the very beginning here I'm afraid :) Just experimenting with various commands for now to figure out how to do it.

      I've used similar approach on Quartus 21, using the NIOS2 command shell to run all necessary commands to create and build (clean,make etc)

      But when trying a similar approach in Q12 it does not seem to work, just get errors about it cannot find files, assumption is that this has something to do with paths (cygdrive) or similar, so this the path I'll follow at first.

      I just wanted to check  if someone else has tried to create/compile Q12 project from commandline incase they had any tips for me.
