Critical Issue
Description
On the Windows 7 or Vista Operating System, when synthesizing the VIP Suite IP MegaCore functions in the Quartus II software, or generating an IP functional simulation model, compilation fails.
This issue affects all configurations.
For synthesis, you receive the following error:
Error: Node instance "scaler" instantiates undefined
entity "alt_vip_scl_GNRA6GTEAK" File: C:/work/testvip/db/scaler_GN.vhd
Line: 52
For IP functional simulation model generation, you receive the following error:
Error: Simulation model map command failed: D:\altera\90sp2\quartus/bin/quartus_map
scaler --simgen --simgen_parameter="CBX_HDL_LANGUAGE=VHDL"
Resolution
You must run the Quartus II software as adminstrator to enable the VIP Suite IP generation and synthesis to complete successfully. To run Quartus II as adminstrator on the Start menu, point to Programs, then Altera, then right click on Quartus II <version>. Click Run as adminstrator.
This issue will be fixed in a future version of the Video and Image Processing Suite.
