License problem

--- Quote Start ---

Hi !

I am new at altera FPGA devices.I have a quartus 2 web edition.As I read from altera documents, after relasing the 8.1 version of quartus program,there is no license file for web edition quartus.

When I try to compile verilog projects, I always see warning "parallel compilation is not liscensed and has been disabled " even if I try to compile very simple projects.

Projects are compiled successfully and they work but I wonder whether it will be problem or not at my future projects.

Licensed versions of Quartus can use more than 1 CPU core to speed up the compilation (a bit). This is just telling you it's only using one core.

And I have Megafunction license and I try to load in Quarstus from tools - license setup but I can't work.Where do I make mistake when loading license file.There will be a problem because of using megafunction on web edition quartus. Do I have to buy other quartus types ?

No I don't think so, it should work with web versions OK.

I try to check whether Qyartus 2 version suitable with PCI_t32 megafunction or not but It doesn't works anymore.

If you help me about these problems,I will really appreciate it, Thanks in advance

Quartus should work with the PCI compiler OK. From what I remember if the license isn't set up correctly it'll produce a

version that works as long as the USB blaster is still connected to the board. It should still build (and meet timing ?)

OK.

I don't think Qsys (the system on a chip tool) is compatible with the PCI compiler though.

Nial.
