1.3. Tutorial Files

This tutorial includes a design example organized into directories that correspond with the flow (Core or Root partition reuse) and role (Developer or Consumer).
Tutorial Directory Structure
The Completed directories contain the final versions of all the files required to complete that tutorial module. You can use the files in the Completed directories to bypass tutorial steps, or skip to the final step of the tutorial module. The Script directories contain scripts to automatically run the flows that each module describes.
Follow these steps to use the design example files with this tutorial:
  1. Locate and download the design reuse tutorial design files at:
    https://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/programmable/us/en/others/literature/an/q181_design_block_reuse_tutorial.zip
  2. Unzip the q181_design_block_reuse_tutorial.zip file.

The .zip includes the following subdirectories that extract to the q181_design_block_reuse_tutorial directory.

Table 1.  Tutorial Design Example Files
Directory Name Description
Core_Partition_Reuse/Developer/ Contains the source files for completing the core partition reuse Developer tutorial steps.
Core_Partition_Reuse/Consumer/ Contains the source files for completing the core partition reuse Consumer tutorial steps.
Core_Partition_Reuse/Completed/ Contains final versions of all the files to complete the core partition reuse tutorial module.
Root_Partition_Reuse/Developer/ Contains the files for completing the root partition reuse Developer tutorial steps.
Root_Partition_Reuse/Consumer/ Contains the files for completing the root partition reuse Consumer tutorial steps.
Root_Partition_Reuse/Completed/ Contains final versions of all the files to complete the core partition reuse tutorial step.
  • */Developer/Scripts
  • */Consumer/Scripts
The Consumer and Developer directories contain Scripts subdirectories that include the following helpful scripts:
  • Scripts/run.sh—automatically completes all steps for that flow.
  • Scripts/restore.sh—restores the tutorial files for that flow to default state.
You must run these scripts from the project directory in the form of Scripts/run.sh. The Intel® Quartus® Prime Pro Edition executable must by in your system path.
