Another Tread on No Output from printf in NIOS

Hi ive read alot of post on this problem (no output in nios console) from alt_printf and printf. But found no solution so far.

The code is running (leds to indicate), i can breakpoint in the code, reg,vars etc gets updated.

ive tried the following.

*) tried to delete .metadata for eclips project and import again

*) tried to create a new project (on chip temp demo from altera)

*) checked std(i,o,err) is set to jtag_uart_0

*) jtag i Qsys

*) no optimizer under bsp settings for NIOS

*) -g compiler option for debug under bsp for NIOS

*) download of .elf file works

*) no timing constrain error's when compiled

I have a project running and working fine with the console, but cant seem to create a new one that works..

the one i have working was done under Windows7 and now im running windows10 (dont think this is the problem but thought i would mention it.)

Software:

Quartus v 15

Java v 8 update 60

Eclips

Version: Kepler Service Release 2

Build id: 20140224-0627

its properly a minor settings problem somewhere, just cant find it.

Thanks in advance
