This repository was forked from ben-marshall's verilog parser in C. This project is target to change C into modern C++ (i.e. modern g++ successfully can compile this project)
This will get you have c++ verilog parsing binary.
$ cd src/
$ make clean
$ make -j4
To start using the parser in your own code, take a look at main.cpp which is a simple demonstration app used for testing and coverage. The basic code which you need is something like this:
// Initialise the parser.
verilog_parser_init();
// Open A File handle to read data in.
FILE * fh = fopen("my_verilog_file.v", "r");
// Parse the file and store the result.
int result = verilog_parse_file(fh);
verilog::verilog_source_tree* ast = verilog::yy_verilog_source_tree;
verilog::verilog_resolve_modules(ast);
FILE* fout = fopen("writing_veilog.v", "w");
PrintVerilog(fout, ast);
You can keep calling verilog_parse_file(fh) on as many different file
handles as you like to build up a multi-file project AST representation.
The parser will automatically follow any include directives it finds.
The original author used ASIC World and OpenSPARCT1 to test codes, but I mainly focused on benchmarks of ICCAD Contest 2015; Problem C, kinds of gate-level netlist.
- Both of gcc/g++ now successfully compile this project (void ptr/extern variable/operator problem)
- Added static library linking options. (libverilog_parser.a)
- Apply namespace(verilog) as not to conflict with oter variable name.
- Implement Verilog Writer (with custom line break)
