1.5.3.1. IP Search Path Recursive Search

The Intel® Quartus® Prime software automatically searches and identifies IP components in the IP search path. The search is recursive for some directories, and only to a specific depth for others. You can use ** characters to halt a recursive search at any directory that contains a _hw.tcl or .ipx file.

In the following list of search locations, ** indicates a recursive descent.
