Thank you for your answer!

How ever, the .qip file is already automatically included in the Nios system i built with Qsys. I tried adding it again but with no luck.

My component is:

- my component.vhd

- altera_gpio_lite.qip

- altera_gpio_lite.vhd

- altera_gpio_lite.sv

The component is added to my Nios project and there is no complaints from Qsys. I'm wondering if i should use LIBRARY, USE and inst_lvds_input : ENTITY work.LVDS_INPUT in my component?
