10 years agoResource utilization is 0 when added qxp file as source file
Hi Altera Gurus,
I included a .qxp file in my quartus design as source file (not set in Partition Planner) and instantiated it in Top-Level-design. After compilation, I noticed the its (dump_qxp:u_qxp) resource utilization is 0% in Fitter Partition Statistic report. Is this an expected case? Anyone?

I wouldn't expect this. What was the size of the original .qxp though? I've instantiated partitions and they don't get synthesized out as long as one output is hooked up to something real, so maybe that's it?
