#71: package hct : The HDL Complexity Tool is a simple tool to provide
measurement data.
--------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
Reporter: chitlesh | Owner: chitlesh
Type: enhancement | Status: new
Priority: major | Milestone: Fedora 13
Component: VHDL/Verilog | Version: devel
Keywords: |
--------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
http://hct.sourceforge.net/index.html
The goal of the HCT is to generate scores that represent the complexity of
the constituent modules of large IC design projects – i.e. SOCs. The
design's complexity scores are useful to verification teams so as to
efficiently focus resources based on the dynamic complexity profile of a
design. The scores are a useful tool to guide HDL designer's refactoring
efforts. This data provides an efficient way to "come up to speed", by
pointing you to the most important modules of a legacy design.
Importantly, the complexity scores allow managers to estimate schedules
and resources in a more robust and effective way than any one standard
metric can provide (SLOC for example).

Not yet. Still awaiting response from FI.

Thanks.

| Which means the GUI has already been written?
\--
Yes, but, uses old GTK+ API. You can look into the current source code.

\--
Please go through the latest GTK+ tutorial, and try out the examples.

\--
No. Tobias Dichtl enhancements will not be affected by your DGC GUI code.

[fedora-electronic-lab] arm-elf gcc/gdb/binutils packages for FEL?
by Chris Shucksmith
I use Fedora FEL for the prepackaged gEDA suite. Recently, I needed to
compile C code for an embedded ARM processor, the Cortex-M3. While
FEL/Fedoras Extra ships with an *arm-gp2x* tool chain, and another for *avr*
it does not have an *arm-elf* toolchain.
It was fairly easy to modify the avr-gdb.spec, avr-gcc.spec and
avr-binutils.spec files found online from the Fedora public build CVS (eg.
at http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewvc/rpms/avr-gdb/F-11/ ) to work for
arm-elf, then build RPMs using rpmbuild. I removed a few avr specific
patches, and upgraded binutils version to a later release to produce valid
code for the cortex architecture (there were some fixes to the ARM call
veneers in the last 12 months). These packages contain an arm-elf-gcc which
accepts "-mcpu=cortex-m3 -mthumb" arguments.
It seems worthwhile to submit these SPEC files for consideration for the FEL
repositories. It would be great next time to have this pre-packaged, working
on the assumption FEL might be more appropriate than Fedora Extras to carry
them.
The SPEC files (and FC11 RPMs) are on my blog at www.shucksmith.co.uk [1]. I
would be happy to add them to the FEL CVS and look after keeping the
packages building if this is an option. While I have no connection to either
the gcc/gdb/binutils developers or FEL, I would still like to try and
maintain them.

[fedora-electronic-lab] F12 with Electronic Lab software
by Howard Howell
Hi, everyone,
I finally got F12 fully installed, and now have added the EL package to
it. I want to develop code for the PIC series microcontrollers. What I
have now has Piclab setup and the compiler working with SDCC, but the
software cannot find the supported processors for gpsim. I know that
this is separate from Piclab, but the Help button doesn't bring up any
help listing for gpsim. It would be nice if that happened. If there is
no document for doing that, I can write up the steps as I figure them
out. I don't know how to integrate such a document into the Help menu,
but I can look that up with some guidance.
So what I am suggesting is that I do the research and get it working,
document the process, then give someone the document to see if they get
it setup correctly, then we can package that as part of the EL package.
Regards,
Les H

[fedora-electronic-lab] Ktechlab help access needs Kdebase
by Howard Howell
Hi, guys and gals,
Ktechlab of the FEL and 'Electronic Lab' rpm package requires the
kdebase to get access to the help files. I tried to submit a bug, but
bugzilla.redhat.com and I are not speaking to each other well right now.
Anyway, when I attempted to run Ktechlab, I couldn't figure out what I
needed to say to get some assembly code to work. I tried to open the
help files using the help application, but it said it needed
khelpcenter. Using yum whatprovides, I came up with KDE base. I had
loaded all the system updates (460 of them) and all of the 'Electronics
Lab' on my system, but this was not loaded. So I used yum to load:
yum install kdebase-runtime-4.3.2-4.fc12.i686
After the install it works fine. Anyway, you all may want to add that
to the dependency list for 'Electronic Lab' group.
Someday real soon now bugzilla and I will come to an understand.

Les H
