Verilog Preprocessor (vpp) Version 1.3 is now available
Hemi Thaker
As the title says, vpp version 1.3 is now available from
Currently, I have only compiled it for a Solaris environment. I'll compile
it on a request basis for any other environments.
With this new release of vpp are a number of new features, along with
all the bug fixes noted to date. The new features include :
- string handling, along with string "arithmetic" (addition, boolean
comparison)
- format statement, allowing integers to be represented in bin, oct, dec,
or hex.
See the man page included in the documentation for a complete list of
features. Additionally, more examples have been included, showing samples
of where vpp can be especially useful. An example is using vpp to generate
a case statement to add up the number of 1's in an 8 bit register, and let
your
synthesis tool do the minimization (very useful if you want to count the
number
of 1's in a BIP-8 register...).

Hi,
I followed the link to the vpp page and couldn't find the source code
to the software. Where can I get the source code?
