Generating C/C++/Python files #8

Closed m-kru closed 1 year ago

m-kru commented 1 year ago

How to generate code for C, C++ or Python accessing the registers? I have installed the latest version from PyPI, but it looks like the vhdmmio has no parameters to generate files for these languages.

It might very well not be implemented. It was a planned feature at the time and the code is structured in a way to support it (easily, in fact), but I probably just never got around to doing it.

@jvanstraten have you abandoned the project in favor of something else?

jvanstraten commented 1 year ago

Yes and no. My career took me to companies that didn't want to step away from their already-developed in-house/proprietary solutions, but if at some point it makes sense for me to use it again or someone comes along to take over development long-term, I'll for sure pick up from where I left off. It's such a sad situation in the hardware world that everyone keeps reinventing their own wheels or buying/selling generally crap-quality IP for $$$$$ rather than embracing the open-source way... but here we are.
