When compiling an FPGA hardware image, the

Intel® oneAPI

DPC++/C++

Compiler

provides object files, FPGA early image object, FPGA image object, and executables as checkpoints to allow you to inspect errors and modify your source code without performing a full compilation on each iteration.

At the FPGA early image object checkpoint, you can view the optimization report that the compiler generates. At the FPGA image object checkpoint, the compiler generates a complete FPGA image.

For detailed information about the FPGA compilation, refer to the FPGA Flow in the

Intel® oneAPI Programming Guide
