Thank you Gents about your advices! I will try to follow them Best Regards Dimitar From: Iztok Jeras Sent: Monday, March 16, 2015 22:51 To: Discussions concerning Icarus Verilog development Subject: Re: [Iverilog-devel] iverilog - constant user function. Yosys seems to support Xilinx FPGA synthesis, but I would recommend Xilinx tools. http://www.clifford.at/yosys/cmd_synth_xilinx.html And yes, Vivado is a pain, many things do not work as documented, but there is SystemVerilog support and I am not going back.

Vivado is a pain, just because it's different, but a friend of mine has that running too. > The GUI could be used in Linux too, although I never bothered with it.

I have been told that every time a third-party synthesizer comes out, it's either terrible and gets dropped, or it's better than Xilinx and Xilinx buys the company so they can roll it in to their next release. The latter process has happened several times. Sometimes it seems that there are open-source synthesizers that are on the edge of being or becoming useful. Icarus 0.8, for instance, or some talks by Sebastien Bourdeauducq, or Wolfgang Spraul's fpgatools. I've noticed recently that Xilinx has started using the ABC code base. - Larry ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dive into the World of Parallel Programming The Go Parallel Website, sponsored by Intel and developed in partnership with Slashdot Media, is your hub for all things parallel software development, from weekly thought leadership blogs to news, videos, case studies, tutorials and more.
