GSoC19 Phase 1 Week 2

Weekly Report

Posted by Bowen on June 9, 2019

Hi, This is my weekly report this week.


Progress this week

I have completed and test the code of Shell_cmd and Shared_lib this week, and I construct most part of the code of Verilog_data but have not test it yet. You can find them here in their folders.

Since this week I was moving my development environment from Ubuntu 18.04 LTS to Ubuntu 19.04, I did most of the code on my laptop, so I just push them onto GitHub yesterday. Shell_cmd Shared_lib and Verilog_data are relatively independent parts, so it did not cause too many troubles.

Verilog_data is significantly complicated than Shell_cmd or Shared_lib, so I would like to post an extra report to explain how this class was implemented, in a few days. I am not sure whether this is the appropriate way to implement the class, but this is the best method that I can come up with.

Plan next week

I will post a report to explain how Verilog_data was implemented, and some details about how the shared library would work with Verilog_data in my vision.

Issue(s)

I leave the Verilog_data::parse_port unfinished, this would originally be the work I planed on the timeline next week, but I will have my final exam in the next week. I will still try my best not to left behind the schedule though.

The Verilog_data::parse_port will be a tough problem I suppose, I have mentioned it sevral times, I plan to parse the port information from the Verilator-generated cpp file rather than the original verilog file. I do not know whether it is a good decision, so I leave the flexibility for future modifications.


See you next week.
