Honored ContributorHow to comiple a single C file in Nios

Altera_ForumTry going through one of the included examples and/or tutorials. You have to create a Nios II project, compile it, and then "Run" or "Debug" the result on a target board.
In general, you can't do what you're asking to do unless you're already _running_ in the runtime environment that you'd like to compile for... i.e.: Compiling a program for Windows while running in Windows...same for Linux.

I have seen a lot of errors in the Nios tools, this one is new for me :)
What do the details say when you try to clean the project? Have you tried building the Hello World example?? - Altera_Forum
Certainly my experience of the IDE is that it did rather like running the compiler! Which wouldn't quite be so bad if the tcl (or whatever) actually ran an a sane speed!
However I switched my build environment to vi+make so don't have that problem any more! Made easier by the fact that I don't need any of the Altera tools to get my code onto the fpga.
