Who tried floating point package on MAX PLUS 2 in VHDL ?

VHDL FP Package

I am interested in working on
IEEE 754 floating point. Unfortunately ieee VHDL87, 93 does not have a FP
package.
Has anyone ever tried floating point package on MAX PLUS 2 in VHDL?

On internet I found one third party package, the VHDL 200x library. A
compile script is there and i think it compiles with Model Sim. Address is:

http://www.eda.org/vhdl-200x/vhdl-200x-ft/packages/files.html

Alternatively,

After quering the developer for that package i found out that Max PLUS 2 can
compile in Quartus 2 mode and probably that would help me run this package.
How should I do that?

If somebody has run an alternative floating point package (in VHDL) then can
he share that with me? or tell me the steps to use this one? I would really
appreciate that.

Re: VHDL FP Package

Probably the VHDL-200x FP package is a good start.

I have also heard of the NU_RPL package by Pavle Belanovic. It provides hardware descriptions for fixed-point to floating and vice versa, as well as FP designs. It is free in the internet.
