Why do I see a license error for Arm* C Compiler when compiling from the command line?

Environment

  • Quartus® II Subscription Edition
  • BUILT IN - ARTICLE INTRO SECOND COMPONENT
    Description

    Due to a problem in the SoC EDS command shell, Intel FPGA Edition Arm C Compiler (ArmCC) licenses may not be located by the Arm compiler tools.

    Resolution

    To work around this problem set the following environment variables in the SoC EDS command shell before compiling or running make: (syntax shown is for BASH):


    export ARMCC5_CCOPT=--tool_variant=altera
    export ARMCC5_ASMOPT=--tool_variant=altera
    export ARMCC5_FROMELFOPT=--tool_variant=altera
    export ARMCC5_LINKOPT=--tool_variant=altera


    This problem is scheduled to be fixed in a future release of SoC EDS.
