1.3.4. Converting Incompatible Components
If you open a Platform Designer system with incompatible components, Platform Designer prompts you to convert these components to the current Platform Designer format. On conversion, the Platform Designer Conversion Results dialog box appears, listing all the converted system and IP source files.
Platform Designer stores the converted .ip files inside an ip folder, relative to the Platform Designer system file (.qsys) location. Platform Designer prefixes the system name to the .ip file name. Platform Designer automatically adds these converted files to the associated Quartus® Prime project. Ensure that you maintain these .ip files, along with your system files.
