Setting Up the LeonardoSpectrum Working Environment
To use the Quartus II software with Mentor Graphics LeonardoSpectrum software, you must install the Quartus II software, then establish an environment that facilitates entering and processing designs.
To set up the LeonardoSpectrum working environment:
Make sure you have installed the following versions of the Quartus II software and the LeonardoSpectrum software:
Mentor Graphics
Altera
LeonardoSpectrum version 2007b
Quartus II version 8.0
The LeonardoSpectrum software supports all Altera devices supported by the Quartus II software.
Note: The Quartus II Software Release Notes are available on the Altera website and provide up-to-date information on which versions of Mentor Graphics applications the current version of the Quartus II software supports. The Quartus II readme.txt file provides information on installation and operating requirements. You should read the Release Notes and readme.txt file before installing the Quartus II software. After installation, you can open the Release Notes and readme.txt file from the Quartus II Help menu.
Go to Quartus II Installation in the Quartus II Installation & Licensing for UNIX and Linux Workstation manual for more information on installation and details on the directories that are created during Quartus II installation.
Note: The information presented here assumes that you are using a C shell and that your Quartus II system directory is /usr/quartus. If not, you must use the appropriate syntax and procedures to set environment variables for your shell.
To run an EDA design entry/synthesis, simulation, or timing analysis tool automatically from the Quartus II software using the NativeLink feature, you must specify the location of executable files for third party EDA tools by clicking Options on the Tools menu, and then clicking EDA Tool Options.
Add the following environment variables to your .cshrc file:
setenv QUARTUS_ROOTDIR /usr/quartus
Type source ~/.cshrc at a UNIX prompt to source the .cshrc file.
