qpro.exe is missing in the new version of Quartus Pro 22.4

Is quartus.exe there? I haven't installed 22.4 yet. They are the same. I've always wondered why both are there.

Hi,

Below is the previous internal message:

qpro.exe is built in the qgq/qgq_exe.gmake file. It is simply a copy from quartus.exe. We should stop building this executable, and therefore stop shipping it. It is not needed, and is confusing and redundant with quartus.exe. This was a Premal-requested feature as I recall, when we made the Standard Edition/Pro Edition split years ago. As far I know, the qpro.exe was never really marketed. Even our documentation says to use quartus.exe: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/docs/programmable/683472/22-4/starting-the-software.html

Therefore, these two executables had been removed from the installation starting with version 22.4.

Best Regards,

Sheng

I have Matlab and Simulink to work with my Quartus. However, Matlab looks for qpro.exe to link these up. I get this error below when I try to setup the HDL tool path.

Input tool path
does not point to a valid Intel Quartus Pro executable 'qpro.exe'.
Please specify the full path to the synthesis tool executable.
For example:
hdlsetuptoolpath('ToolName', 'Intel Quartus Pro', ...
'ToolPath', 'C:\intelFPGA_pro\18.0\quartus\bin64\qpro.exe');

How can I link my Quartus Pro 22.4 with Matlab? I think we need the qpro.exe or MathWorks needs to change their thing to look for quartus.exe.
