RTL Component for an OpenCL Library Example

Hello,

I'm trying to integrate a RTL Module (VHDL/Verilog) in a OpenCL Kernel as a helper function, as it's described in the Chapter 2 "Altera SDK for OpenCL Advanced Features", section "OpenCL Library" of the "Altera SDK for OpenCL, Programming Guide" (2016.05.02).

This guide quotes an example, in the section: "Using an OpenCL Library that Works with Simple Functions (Example 1)", but this example isn't available in the web:

https://www.altera.com/support/support-resources/design-examples/design-software/opencl.html

I've had some problems with the kernel compilation when I use the RTL function, so I'm interested in acquire that example as a reference.

Thanks

    Do you have integrated a RTL Module (VHDL/Verilog) in a OpenCL Kernel as a helper function afterwards?I don't clearly about Using an OpenCL Library that Works with External Memory

    (Example 2)?I don't understand the way of performing the working with External Memory.
