Default Re: Altera "my support" :-(


I'm in the middle of a similar situation. I just reported a fatal,
reproducible error on "My Support." Once the tech was able to
reproduce the error, his response was that the bug would be "fixed in
a future version..." Case closed.

He also said that he successfully tested the design using the
integrated FPGA Compiler II tool (I'm using Precision) and recommended
that approach as a workaround. I tried it and found that my
utilization jumped from ~75% with Precision to 116% with the
integrated synthesis.

Needless to say, I am not impressed.
