Generating netlist with quartus_eda

For various reasons I need to use individual executables (that's how our build scripts are structured) rather than "quartus_sh --flow compile".

It looks like using the following parameters to quartus_eda:

--read_settings_files=off --write_settings_files=off <proj> -c <version> --format=verilog --tool=modelsim --simulation=on

fixes the problem.

GUI flow was using the command:

quartus_eda --read_settings_files=off --write_settings_files=off <proj> -c <version>

So by adding format, tool and simulation parameters to command line, even though the QSF already contained those options, made it work.

That sounds like a bug.

Thanks,
