1.15. Exporting a Version-Compatible Compilation Database for PR Designs
This technique is helpful when you want to compile and generate bitstreams for the PR implementation revisions with a later version of the Quartus® Prime software. Configuration bitstreams are not version-compatible, and you must generate all bitstreams from the same version of the Quartus® Prime software.
After migrating the base revision to a later version of the Quartus® Prime software, the bitstream you generate is only compatible with bitstreams from PR implementation compilations using that same Quartus® Prime software version. Such a bitstream is incompatible with the PR bitstreams from an earlier version of the Quartus® Prime software.
The Quartus® Prime Pro Edition software supports version-compatible databases for PR designs for the following software versions and devices:
