hwtSimApiVerilator

This library contains Python/C++ bindigns for Verilator RTL simulator generator and for simulator binaries generated from it.

Installation

sudo apt install build-essential python3 cmake flex bison git libboost-dev libboost-all-dev
download verilator
apply patches from verilator_patches_tmp ( as it is done in .travis.yml)
install verilator
run sudo python3 setup.py install to install globally or python3 setup.py install --user to install to ~/.local/...
Or if you want to just test this library without any kind of installation use python3 setup.py build to build c extensions.

Using windows is not recomended with verilator. Asi it is more easy to use docker than tweak Verilator to run on Windows as desired.

install Python 3
install Visual Studio (C++)
install CMake
install boost
install Cygwin and save installer setup-x86_64.exe to cygwin root.
use ci_scripts/appveyor_install.sh to install this library and it's dependencies

After installation verilator has to run under cygwin, but python and this library are not restricted.
