Quartus crash on .qsf update?
Hello,
I suffered issue with Quartus crashing when I use the signal tap.
As a workaround I do the modifications with signal tap, save it and run quartus p and r.
When this is done, I close quartus and re-open it to be able to open signal tap again.
If I open signal tap directly, quartus crashes.
Now, I was opening a quartus project right now and edited the .qsf manually (commenting few lines),
on saving it with the text editor, quartus crashed (error popup window under linux).
So I'm wondering if Quartus is actually not crashing because the signal tap saves the settings (nodes to probes, blaster info, ...) and that quartus is disturbed by that.
Normally Quartus always reload the ,qsf to check for any changes, prior to a new run,
but there are maybe race conditions that makes it un-stable.
Just saying, if that can help Intel to make Quartus more robust and solve a lot of issue because of this .qsf modifications, that would be great.
Have a nice day.
Alex.
