Wave Editor and Testbench Generation/VCD Viewer
Wave Editor/Viewer is a program to view and edit waveform of a digital design. It supports different formats as input or output as VCD, XML. Wave Editor produces a VHDL TestBench from edited waveform. This tool also reads a compiled VHDL file and makes wave file from it for editing.
Application
- Making a VHDL TestBench file for a VHDL design( Entity or Architecture)
- Viewing output of simulators that produce VCD files like verilog simulator or systematic simulators
- Viewing any waveform produced in XML format
- Produce a waveform in XML format for other applications (simulators)
Format
- Data structures are designed in C++ - Interface is fully designed in VC++6 using MFC - VCD file parser is written with parser generator V.2 with Lex2Yac - XML file parser uses MSXML 3.0 (or above)
- A standalone EXE file is also available (independent from ROSTA) - XML file reading is done in another thread (other than main application thread)
