iverilog:tldr:4471e
This command is using the iverilog compiler, which is a computer-aided design tool used for compiling and simulating digital circuits written in the Verilog hardware description language.
Here is the breakdown of the command:
-
${path-to-source-v}
: This is a placeholder for the path to your source code file(s) with the.v
extension. You need to provide the actual path to your Verilog source file(s). -
-o ${path-to-executable}
:-o
is an option to specify the output file name for the compiled executable.${path-to-executable}
is a placeholder for the desired path and name of the executable file to be generated. You need to replace it with the actual path and name you want for your executable. -
-I${path-to-library_directory}
:-I
is an option used to specify the directory location for any library files or module dependencies that your Verilog code relies on.${path-to-library_directory}
should be replaced with the actual path to your library directory.
So, in summary, this command compiles the source Verilog code file(s) specified by ${path-to-source-v}
, saving the compiled executable file with the desired path and name specified by ${path-to-executable}
, and includes any necessary library files or modules from ${path-to-library_directory}
during the compilation process.
