13. Read-Only Zip File System
Intel FPGA provides a read-only zip file system for use with the hardware abstraction layer (HAL). The read-only zip file system provides access to a simple file system stored in flash memory. This file system is suitable for embedded software use. The drivers take advantage of the HAL generic device driver framework for file subsystems. Therefore, you can access the zip file subsystem using the ANSI C standard library I/O functions, such as fopen() and fread().
The Intel FPGA® read-only zip file system is provided as a software package. All source and header files for the HAL drivers are located in the directory <Nios II EDS install path>/components/altera_ro_zipfs/HAL/.
