quartus tcl - finding project name

If you are in the tcl shell and your Quartus project is already opened you can obtain the information in the quartus array from the global name space:

for example:

# array names quartus

ip_rootpath copyright load_report_is_needed advanced_use nativelink_tclpath quartus_rootpath processing tclpath ipc_mode nameofexecutable natural_bus_naming eda_tclpath settings internal_use regtest_mode package_table eda_libpath args ipc_sh version binpath project is_report_loaded available_packages

# puts $quartus(project)

If you are loading a script from your .qsf file

for example:

set_global_assignment -name PRE_FLOW_SCRIPT_FILE "quartus_sh:myscript.tcl"

then the project file name is automatically passed to your script as the first argument:

proc main {} {

package require cmdline

# # Global Variables

global ::argv

set project_name [lindex $argv 1]

...

}
