    Hi Balerion,

    Our team have contacted with Ashling, and they have provided the solution to this issue. The latest Ashling* RiscFree* IDE v25.2.1 (version dated 09 May 2025) have resolved this issue.

    You may download it separately from Quartus® Prime Pro Edition Installer for software version 25.1.1 download link.

    1. Click on the link.
    2. Select your Operating System.
    3. Download and launch the Installer.
    4. Select and install these only:
    • Add-ons and Standalone Software > Ashling* RiscFree* IDE for Altera
    • Add-ons and Standalone Software > Quartus® Prime Pro Edition Programmer and Tools

     

    And use it with your Quartus® Prime Pro Edition software version 24.3.

    Note: Refrain from using the 25.3 installer. It is just discovered that it is packaged with an older RiscFree IDE (version dated 31st Jan 2025). Which still have this C++ debug issue. 

    Regards,
    Liang Yu

Hi Balerion,

I spoke with a colleague and there is apparently a known issue in the Ashling Debugger for C++. As a work around, could you rename the file to .c but then in your CMAKE set the file property to set the language to C++?

Hi again,

I tried what you said but it still didn't work. I will be adding the files that I am trying. Could you please tell me what to change in my CMakeLists.txt. I added the lines below.

set_source_files_properties(
main.c
PROPERTIES LANGUAGE CXX
)

*********************************************************

#include "MyCls.h"
void MyCls::MyPrintf()
{
printf("HELLO FROM PRINTF\n");
std::cout << "HELLO FROM COUT" << std::endl;
}
NOTE: I tried to add MyCls.cpp to the attachment but it didn't allow me to do so I added here

Thanks,

Balerion
