Why does the DisplayPort Intel® FPGA IP design example fail to generate a programming file when using the Intel® Quartus® Prime Pro Edition Software v19.1?

Description

Due to a problem in the Intel® Quartus® Prime Pro Edition Software v19.1, designs that use the Nios® II/e processor core without a valid Nios® II processor license will fail to generate programming files even though the design compilation is successful. 

The DisplayPort Intel® FPGA IP design example uses the Nios II/e processor core. Hence, it will be impacted by this problem. 

Resolution

To work around this problem in the Intel® Quartus® Prime Pro Edition Software v19.1, install the following patch and regenerate the DisplayPort Intel® FPGA IP design example:

• Version 19.1 patch 0.02 for Windows (.exe)
• Version 19.1 patch 0.02 for Linux (.run)
• Readme for the Intel® Quartus® Prime Pro Edition Software v19.1 patch 0.02 (.txt)

This problem is fixed starting with the Intel Quartus Prime Pro Edition Software v19.2.
