Does Quartus II 13.1 support VHDL-2008 unconstrained array elements? The Template generator has example unconstrained array constructs and from Tricky's post (in 2010!) I thought 13.1 would support this feature. However, when I try to use them in a design I get:

"Error (10294): VHDL Type Declaration error at fir_pkg.vhd(30): element type for array type cannot be unconstrained"

:-(

As the project uses a Cyclone III I need to use a version of Quartus II that supports this device. From looking at the supported devices for the various versions, it looks like 13.1 is the last version to support Cyclone III.
