New ContributorI can't run synthesis with the encrypt_1735 output in Quartus
Hello,
I'm using the encrypt_1735 utility and it encrypts from what I see. However, when I try to run synthesis in Quartus, red X's appear over the steps, but no pop up appears. Am I doing something wrong running the encrypt utility or is there a separate step in order to run the encrypted sources in Quartus? Thanks!

I think I got it. You could cross check with my steps. In this case, I am using a simple design called counter.v
- Encrypt the design with IEEE 1735. Command line used: encrypt_1735 --quartus --language=verilog counter.v
- File counter.vp will be generated in the file folder.
- Open a new project, add counter.vp in the project. Set it as top-level entity.
- Right click on the counter.vp. Select Properties. Ensure the Type: Verilog HDL File.
- Run Analysis & Synthesis.
Hope it helps.
