Launch OpenFPGA Shell
OpenFPGA employs a shell-like user interface, in order to integrate all the tools in a well-modularized way.
Currently, OpenFPGA shell is an unified platform to call vpr
, FPGA-Verilog
, FPGA-Bitstream
, FPGA-SDC
and FPGA-SPICE
.
To launch OpenFPGA shell, users can choose two modes.
- --interactive or -i
Launch OpenFPGA in interactive mode where users type-in command by command and get runtime results
- --file or -f
Launch OpenFPGA in script mode where users write commands in scripts and FPGA will execute them
- --batch_execution or -batch
Execute OpenFPGA script in batch mode. This option is only valid for script mode.
If in batch mode, OpenFPGA will abort immediately when fatal errors occurred.
If not in batch mode, OpenFPGA will enter interactive mode when fatal errors occurred.
- --version or -v
Print version information of OpenFPGA
- --help or -h
