Hi,

May I know are you using the dedicated BSP(a10gx_hostch) for this feature compilation?

Board list:

a10gx

Board Package: C:\intelFPGA_pro\17.1\hld\board\a10_ref

a10gx_hostch

Board Package: C:\intelFPGA_pro\17.1\hld\board\a10_ref

Channels: host_to_dev, dev_to_host

Regards,

CloseCL

The target BSP does not make any difference here since the compiler ignores the host channel extension all together because it is unknown to it. Either the name of the extension is something other than what is written in Altera's documents, or support for the extension is broken.
