You could use the tools that the linux guys use to map their addresses into the kernel build process.

After you have compiled your SOPC into a SOPCINFO, open a NIOS terminal in the directory of your project and type "sopc-create-header-files --single custom_fpga.h". This should create an h file with all your addresses defined.

Hope that helps.

Thanks, that's what i needed!

I have no Nios Component in my System. So there was no system.h file.

Now it's easy to extract the base adresses with a little Perl script ( perl is included in the nios II shell).

i would like to generate a shell script to trigger the sopc-create-header-files call and the perl script. Can i add this in the tcl file of die SOPC system so its automatic executed by system generation?

Thanks!
