The qsys Tcl package allows the use of ::env, whereas the sopc Tcl package did not. I use $::env(VHDL) to point to my source area, that way the scripts are portable between my various machines (the CVS checkout can be to a different folder).

Because SOPC builder added the files directly to the project there was no need to use any environment variables. This allowed to have multiple versions of the same source on my system - or have multiple projects with each their own copy of the source.

Both SOPC and Qsys have their "issues", eg., inability to handle VHDL reals, problems with booleans, etc. However, the wrapper solution shown in the attached zip avoids the issues with Qsys VHDL generics support.

I agree, lets hope the next tool will offer some improvements.
