3 years agoDeprecating the ability to convert HDL to .bsf format should not affect the integrity Intel's platform design, and this is a huge mistake. It is now nearly impossible for me to port a previous design in Quartus Standard edition to Quartus Pro edition because of this deprecation. The designers of Quartus should know that symbol files are converted to specific instances of the Verilog module, and so there is no portability if we cannot regenerate the block symbols in the Pro version. So it's a huge mess with no apparent work-around other than try to go back to standard edition.
