crash during synthesis

Hi,

when I run synthesis and analysis in my project it crashes after 6min. The crash happens every time (with fresh sources and quartus project). I cannot share whole project and stack trace gives no clues where the problem could be. Please find below report:

  • Hi Wija,


    Update:


    The fix has been ported to 23.1, and will branch to 22.4 around next week for fix.

    Regarding current version you are using, I am pending reply on requesting a workaround or possibly a patch. Let me know if that is okay.

    Hi Wija,


    Understood. I had filed a report to the developer for further debug and this is a real bug.

    I will let you know once there is any update.

    Hi,

    thank you for the update. Fix in Quartus 23.1 will be enough for me. I do not need workaround.

    Thanks,

    Piotr
