8 years ago --- Quote Start --- For custom IP, I'm pretty sure you need to write Nios software drivers to reference the correct IP. See this training as a starting point: https://www.altera.com/support/training/course/oniitoolsdesign.html --- Quote End --- Thank you for the suggestion. I reviewed the training but did not see anything to help me. The problem I am having is that, unlike the Quartus FPGA side of things, the Eclipse/SBT side of things appears to only pull IP (software as in *.c, *.h files) from the Altera installation directory. Since the IP that I am concerned with is third party patches to existing Altera IP, I am reluctant to simply replace the files in the installation folder with the patched IP because of the possibility of updates to Quartus overwriting the patches and the problem of portability of the project if moved to another person or machine. Can you suggest anywhere else to look?
