2.2. Installing the Intel® FPGA RTE for OpenCL™

Install the Windows version of the Intel® FPGA RTE for OpenCL™ Standard Edition in a folder that you own.
You must have administrator privileges to execute these instructions.

To install the Intel® FPGA RTE for OpenCL™ , perform the following tasks:

  1. Run the setup.bat file to install the SDK with the Intel® Quartus® Prime Standard Edition software.
    Note: The installer sets the user environment variable INTELFPGAOCLSDKROOT to point to the path of the software installation.
  2. Run the .exe installer. Direct the installer to extract the software to an empty folder that you own (that is, not a system folder).
    Note: The installation path must not contain any spaces (for example, <home_directory>\intelfpga\<version>\aclrt-windows64).
  3. Verify that INTELFPGAOCLSDKROOT points to the current version of the software. Open a Windows command window and then type echo %INTELFPGAOCLSDKROOT% at the command prompt.
    If the returned path does not point to the location of the Intel® FPGA RTE for OpenCL™ installation, edit the INTELFPGAOCLSDKROOT setting.
