Using revision with Quartus and sopc builder

Hello,

I have a project which have two different versions whose only change is the the bank address width (2 or 3).

I have created a revision, changed the top of file, created a new .sopc file. I thought it will be ok with these changes but in fact I can't do the synthesis it seems that some parts are connected to the other sopc system.

Do you have any idea ? What other files I have to change to use the new sopc design ?

    Finally, it's possible. I am not an expert in VHDL and Altera tools but I have found a way to do it maybe it's not very clean but it seems ok.

    I have created a new revision from the previous one, then I also created a new folder for the new sopc design.

    I have created a new entity into a new top vhd file. I have changed this into the project settings and I have removed the sopc .qip from the project files.

    After that I have used the mega wizard assistant to add a new sopc design whose files are into the folder I have created. I generate the sopc design and then add the .qip file into the files project and also add the generated vhd files and some other files in order quartus use it instead of the other one which are at the root.

    So I only have to change the revision to have the good sopc design and I don't need to generate it again and to re-compile the design.
