similar to vlpp.exe.

The iverilog.exe binary is a shallow driver program. It calls
other programs to do all the interesting work. In particular, it
uses ivlpp to do preprocessing, and ivl to do parsing and elaboration.

BTW Pablo has much more recent version of Icarus Verilog compiled
for Windows. You might want to take a look.

gEDA-user: Structure of Iverilog Windows Version

2010-06-24 Thread Ronald Mathias
   Hi,



   I have downloaded the windows version of icarus verilog version 0.8.1.7
   from [1]http://bleyer.org/icarus/. When I install the executable, I get
   the executable vlpp.exe ivl.exe. in the lib\ivl directory. I know that
   vlpp.exe is the preprocessor. But I do not know what is ivl.exe used
   for. When I run ivl.exe separately, using the -h option the output is
   similar to vlpp.exe.



   What is ivl.exe and what is it used for?



   Is it like a backend for iverilog.exe?



   Regards,

   Ronnie
