It is provided als C-Code and is easily portable, so you get is easy ported on a Cortex-M for example. We have such an effort running on the F4-Discovery Board from ST. The programming file is loaded per UAB-UART and flashed into the ProAsic with the DirectC running in the Cortex MCU. > > > > > _______________________________________________ > Ghdl-discuss mailing list > Ghdl-discuss@gna.org > https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/ghdl-discuss -- Mail: tors...@meissneronline.net Blog: http://blog.goodcleanfun.de
