New Contributoris there anyway to pass value to a variable in side the tcl. either from tcl console under quartus or using quartus_sh under linux?
for example
i have text.tcl, inside is
set test 0
in my cmd line i want to
quartus_sh -t test.tcl test =5
or in tcl console/
source test.tcl test=5
thx. seem "exec" would work but everytime i try
exec quartus_sh -t top.tcl 5 it just freeze quartus
New ContributorYou could do
quartus_sh -t test.tcl 5
And in test.tcl have
set test [lindex $argv 0]
That takes the zeroth input argument, in this case 5, and assigns it to a variable test.
Super ContributorMay I know whether the suggestion from Heiko help in your case?
Do you need further help on this?

New Contributorit help on linux side, but what about tcl console in quartus?
when i try quartus_sh i got these errors
Error:invalid command name "quartus_sh"
New ContributorIf you're running it from the tcl console the quartus_sh is not a valid command. Because (*I think) the tcl console in the quartus user interface is actually just the quartus_sh executable running in interactive mode.
To call quartus_sh from the tcl console you could use the exec command.
Following your example
exec quartus_sh -t top_all.tcl 5
Not sure if that is the most elegant solution to your problem. But it should work.
