Description |
Opens an existing project. To create a new project, use the "project_new" command. If the "-revision" option is not specified, the project name is used to open the revision. By default, opening the project overwrites the database created in a different version of the Quartus Prime software. However, if the "-error_on_incompatible_database" option is specified, instead of opening the project, an error is issued when the database version differs from the current version of the Quartus Prime software. |
