Honored ContributorThanks a lot, Chris! I could build the aocx file after following your steps, but wanted to post a couple of observations.
--- Quote Start --- I have to mention that I was using VS2010 Professional with SP1, yet, VS2013 should probably do fine as well (as long as you add proper paths to LIB variable). --- Quote End --- I had to point to the 64-bit version of link etc; i.e. add C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\VC\bin\amd64 to PATH (note \amd64). --- Quote Start --- The altera_s5_ref_mmd.lib file is located in X:\altera\14.0\hld\board\(YOUR_BOARD)\windows64\bin, so make sure you add this directory to the PATH variable. You run "aocl install" afterwards and hopefully "aocl diagnose" won't return any errors. --- Quote End --- In my case, "aocl install" returned "install: completed successfully" but "aocl diagnose" returned DIAGNOSTIC_FAILED for the reason: Unable to open the kernel mode driver.
