Intel HLS can not generate execution file

Hello,I am trying to use Intel HLS ,but it seems has some problem.

I have used windows7 and Quartus 17.1 pro.

This is my code: 

# include "HLS/stdio.h"
int main() {
      printf("Hello world!!\n");
   
  return 0;
}

My command :

i++ -march=x86-64 hello.cpp

and this is output : 


C:/Program Files (x86)/Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0/VC/bin/link.exe : fatal error LNK1107: invalid or corrupt file :cannot read at 0x2A0
HLS Link x86-64 FAILD.

I also try to run the example Counter,used command :

i++ -march=Arria10 counter.cpp

and get the same output.Unlike the above, it generates a prj folder.

I had try to add C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\VC\bin to the PATH ,

reinstalled Quartus and visual studio 2010.

None of these are useful.

Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi,

    1.Have initialized the environment for HLS compiler?

    2.Do You have any other version of Quartus installed on the machine?

    Can you attach the log of command prompt?To get to know the steps followed.

    Best Regards,

    I have uninstalled Quartus 15,DevC++ and visual studio 2015 before I installed visual studio 2010 and Quartus 17.

    There is only one version of Quartus 17 on the machine.

    I first installed visual studio 2010 Professional ,and than installed Quartus 17.1. Finally, I have installed MinGW.

    After the installation is complete, this is my command prompt: 

    
Setting environment for using Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 x64 tools.

    Hi,

    To check if VS2010 installed properly.

    Can you run the example in Quartus 17.1 using a build.bat file and check?

    (-> https://forums.intel.com/s/question/0D50P00004C5jTsSAJ/)

    Hi,

    I've got a similar error. I tried to run the example "counter":

    cd C:\intelFPGA_pro\18.1\hls

    init_hls.bat (->The i++ compiler is now available at 'C:\intelFPGA_pro\18.1\hls\bin\' (through your %Path%))

    cd C:\intelFPGA_pro\18.1\hls\examples\counter

    build.bat test-x86-64

    i++  -march=x86-64 counter.cpp -o test-x86-64.exe
c:/program files (x86)/microsoft visual studio 14.0/vc/bin/link.exe : fatal error LNK1107: invalid or corrupt file: cannot read at 0x320
HLS Link x86-64 FAILED.
Run test-x86-64.exe to execute the test.

    Any suggestions on how to solve that problem?

    I'm using:

    Quartus Prime 18.1.0 Patch 0.04

    VS 2015 Update 3

    Win 10 64Bit
