1.8.1. Upgrading IP Cores at Command-Line

Optionally, upgrade an Intel® FPGA IP core at the command-line, rather than using the GUI. IP cores that do not support automatic upgrade do not support command-line upgrade.
  • To upgrade a single IP core at the command-line, type the following command: 
    
quartus_sh –ip_upgrade –variation_files <my_ip>.<qsys,.v, .vhd> \
     <quartus_project>

Example:
quartus_sh -ip_upgrade -variation_files mega/pll25.qsys hps_testx
  • To simultaneously upgrade multiple IP cores at the command-line, type the following command: 
    
quartus_sh –ip_upgrade –variation_files “<my_ip1>.<qsys,.v, .vhd>> \
     ;  <my_ip_filepath/my_ip2>.<hdl>”  <quartus_project>

Example:
quartus_sh -ip_upgrade -variation_files "mega/pll_tx2.qsys;mega/pll3.qsys" hps_testx
