PARAMETERS

14       ident     External  connector,  internal observing points or register's
15                 name. For the hierarchical descriptions, the path-name of the
16                 internal  observing  points or registers must be specified by
17                 the syntax : instance1.instance11.name .
18
19       nb_space  Specify the number of blank space between each group of value
20                 associated  to  the  connectors,  signals or registers in the
21                 output file. 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 or nothing.
22
23       format    Specify the format that will be used to represent  the  value
24                 associated  to  the  connectors,  signals or registers. X for
25                 Hexadecimal, O for Octal and B for Binary.
26
27       mode      Specify the type of the connectors. IN  for  Input,  OUT  for
28                 Output, INOUT for Input/Output, SIGNAL for internal observing
29                 point, REGISTER for register. IN, OUT, INOUT, SIGNAL,  REGIS‐
30                 TER are constants (defines) provided by genpat.
31
32       size      Specify the size of the bused connectors : empty ("") for the
33                 scalar connectors, "nb1" for the numbered connectors, "nb1 TO
34                 nb2" or "(nb1 TO nb2)" (nb1 < nb2), "nb1 DOWNTO nb2" or "(nb1
35                 DOWNTO nb2)" (nb2 < nb1) for the vectors. Where nb1  and  nb2
36                 are integer.
37
38       option    Specify  options of the connector. "S" for a spied connector,
39                 empty ("") for a normal connector.
