How to keep analysis/synthesis during the compilation?

Hi,

I want to compile the quartus project, but I don´t want the QUARTUS 18.0 runs the Analysis and Synthesis when I don´t change the vhd files. In othe words, I just want the Quartus runs fitter, assembler and time analysis. Is it possible?

Tks.

Alexandre

    Yes. From the Processing menu, go to Start and choose the compiler stage you want to run, like the Fitter. If the source code has not been changed, the compiler should just run the Fitter.

    If it still runs analysis and synthesis, check that you have the option "Smart compilation" enabled in the Settings dialog box. I don't have the tool open right now to check where that is.

    You will also need to check which version or device that you were using? Some of the device does not support smart compilation

      Hello KTan9,

      My device is Cyclone V, and it supports the smart compilation.
